Medical Devices & Equipment
Egyptian Drug Authority (EDA) — Medical Device Sector
Egypt's medical device sector is growing rapidly, driven by expanding hospital infrastructure, a rising middle class, and government investment in universal health coverage. The Egyptian Drug Authority (EDA) oversees all device registrations under a risk-based classification system spanning Class A to Class D. Taevas manages the full registration lifecycle, from dossier preparation and local agent appointment to post-market surveillance and ongoing compliance.
Regulatory Pathways
Mandatory
Device Classification & Registration
All medical devices must be classified by risk level (Class A through D) and registered with the EDA Medical Device Sector before any import or sale. Taevas prepares and submits the complete technical dossier aligned with EDA requirements.
Mandatory
Local Authorized Representative
Foreign manufacturers must appoint an EDA-recognised local authorised representative in Egypt who assumes regulatory responsibility for the product. Taevas provides in-country representation to satisfy this requirement.
Mandatory
Import Licence & Customs Clearance
Each shipment of registered medical devices requires an import permit issued by EDA and clearance through the General Organisation for Export and Import Control (GOEIC). Taevas coordinates both to prevent port delays.
Ongoing
Post-Market Surveillance
EDA mandates ongoing adverse event reporting, periodic safety updates, and renewal of device registrations. Taevas maintains a continuous vigilance programme to keep your products compliant and on the market.
