RoHS Compliance Testing has become standard procedure for most manufacturers, sellers, distributors, and recyclers of electrical and electronic components or equipment sold or used in the European Union. The need for RoHS testing is a result of the Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive or RoHS Directive, which became effective on July 1, 2006. The Directive was drawn up in the European Union to protect human health and the environment from hazardous substances by restricting the use of six hazardous chemicals in electrical and electronic products.

All manufacturers, either of Indian or foreign origin can apply for the CDSCO licence.In case of foreign manufacturer license will be granted to the manufacturer and the Indian counterpart of the manufacturer will act as it’s Indian Representative. The Indian representative of the manufacturer must have a valid state drugs license under Form 20-B/21-B or Form 42 ( applied under Form 41 ) as per the latest guidelines released by CDSCO.
All types of medical devices are divided into 4 classes by the Medical Device Rules 2017, in 4 main categories, namely
1. Class A ( least risk )
2. Class B ( Moderate risk )
3. Class C ( Moderate to high risk )
4. Class D ( High risk )
Class A products are further divided into 2 categories to ascertain if CDSCO license or CDSCO registration is applicable on the product:
a.) Class A ( non sterile and non measuring ) products come under registration scheme.
b.) Class A ( Sterile or measuring ) products require license.
This brings us to the conclusion that products which are under class A ( sterile or measuring ), Class B, Class C and Class D require a license from CDSCO.
A.) CDSCO registration for Class A products ( non-sterile and non-measuring )
1. Drugs license of importer ( Required only for foreign manufacturer )
2. Free sales certificate ( Required only for foreign manufacturer )
3. ISO certificate ( Required only for foreign manufacturer )
4. List of products to be registered.
5. Basic details about the product ( example: storage temperature, shelf life, model number, etc.) , etc.
B.) Class A ( sterile or measuring ), Class B, Class C and Class D
1. Plant Master File ( PMF )
2. Device Master File ( DMF )
3. Manufacturing process flowchart.
4. Labels and user manual.
5. Design verification and validation.
6. Stability validation data.
7. Challan of the government fee paid, etc.
Timeline : CDSCO registration process will take 1 day after the documents are submitted to us.
Validity : Validity of CDSCO online registration is perpetual i.e. no end date and requires no renewal.
Note : After the registration is completed, a unique file number is generated, which has to be mentioned on the product / packaging, in case of registration there is no certificate
Timeline : Approx 6-8 weeks after submission of application.

Note: 1.) In case of CDSCO import license, AUDIT OF THE FOREIGN MANUFACTURER IS NOT CONDUCTED, and rest of the procedure remains the same.
2.) License number mentioned on the CDSCO registration certificate has to be mentioned on the products / packaging.
3.) Test license is also required in case of Indian manufacturers.
As CDSCO registration consultants, our job is to ensure that the tiring procedures that we have listed above become a cake-walk for you. Right from the beginning i.e. from the stage of collection of documents from the foreign manufacturers or preparation of documents for the Indian manufacturer and following up with the department for grant of license is under our scope.
We are one of the most experienced CDSCO consultants in the field of medical products,we provide apex quality of services possible to all our national and international clients.
