function by such means.

j. Person: a term that includes legal entities such as a corporation, partnership or an association.

k. Supply(ing) to the market: the making available, in return for payment or free of charge, of a device, other than a device intended for clinical or performance evaluation, with a view to distribution and/or use on the market.

3. General  

The Interim Scheme requires manufacturers wishing to supply a medical device in the KSA, to provide the SFDA with documentation that demonstrates compliance of the device with the provisions that apply to it, i.e. proof that the manufacturer is authorized to place the device on the market of one of the GHTF Founding Member jurisdictions and that it complies with the specific national requirements of the Interim Scheme.

This Implementing Rule specifies and/or completes these requirements and describes the validation process.       

4. Documentation to be provided to, or kept available for inspection by, the SFDA    

The manufacturer shall either directly, or through his authorized representative, complete an application form as shown in Annexes 1 to 5 ,accessible through the SFDA’s web site at (Drafting Note: insert website address when known) and provide the SFDA with documentary evidence, as follows:

a. Documents to be provided to the SFDA that relate to the original market authorization in the GHTF Founder Member jurisdiction shall be in English, unless the SFDA has given prior agreement that another language is acceptable. However, where the language used is other than English, a summary and/or translation of the relevant parts of the document shall be provided in English.

b. The manufacturer shall indicate to the SFDA the location of the technical documents that support its Declaration of Conformity that the medical device complies with the provisions of the medical device regulations of a GHTF Founder Member jurisdiction. When duly justified, the SFDA may request the applicant to provide parts of this technical documentation. Where the language used in such documentation is other than English, the applicant shall indicate this fact to the SFDA and may be requested to provide an English translation of the relevant parts of such documents.

c. Labelling in the English language is acceptable where the user(s) of the medical device is likely to be professionally qualified. If the device is for use by a lay person, labelling shall be in Arabic and English.

d. The following documents shall be in English:

e. measures related to the application of the specific national measures;

f. the declarations attesting that the medical devices comply with the regulation of the GHTF founding member and with the relevant specific national provisions;

Founding Member jurisdiction. However, it will inspect the certificate/s provided and scrutinise certain of the other documents provided to it and confirm to its own satisfaction that the documentation accompanying the application is sufficient and applies to the subject medical device.

The CAB determines the adequacy of the documentary evidence in support of the applicant’s attestation of conformity with the:

• specified regulations of a GHTF Founder Member jurisdiction, and

• national provisions of the Interim Scheme.

Where the evidence offered is inadequate, the CAB will ask the SFDA to request the applicant for additional technical documentation but, where it does so, must justify such a request. It may also verify directly with the organisations that have issued the certificates provided by the applicant that they have not expired and/or the conditions of their validity.

The CAB may request the SFDA to interrogate the MDPRC database for any reported incidents that involve the medical device that is the subject of the market authorization application.

When the CAB has reached a conclusion as to whether or not the manufacturer has met the requirements of the Interim Scheme it shall inform the SFDA of its findings. The CAB shall recommend to the SFDA the period for which the authorization shall run taking into account the validity of the original authorization issued by the GHTF founding country.  

7. Marketing authorization

When satisfied that the manufacturer or his authorized representative has provided all the information required, the SFDA shall issue a market authorization in writing to the manufacturer that permits the relevant medical devices to be placed on the market of the KSA. The marketing authorization shall incorporate the dates of both its issue and expiry, taking into account, among other factors, the conditions of validity of the original authorizations, if any

The authorization issued by the SFDA that permits the medical device to be marketed within the KSA shall be in English.

Note: For the purpose of the Interim Scheme, only those contact lenses and laser surgical equipment for cosmetic rather than for medical applications shall be authorized in the KSA , which are authorized in one of the GHTF founding member countries under their medical device regulation .
