NMPA

National Medical Products Administration (China)

China

China's NMPA regulates medical devices through CMDE (Center for Medical Device Evaluation) technical reviews. China uses a three-class risk-based system. Foreign manufacturers must appoint a Marketing Authorization Holder (MAH) and complete in-country testing for Class II and III devices. China is the world's second-largest medical device market.
