Executive Summary
The Malaysian Medical Devices Authority has given medtech companies an additional year to register their devices under the country’s new conformity-assessment-based regulatory system. The original deadline for companies to file with the MDA – and thus allow the products to stay on the Malaysian market – was 30 June 2015, but this has now been extended to 30 June 2016.
