This episode of LATAM MedTech Insights tackles the common misconceptions surrounding the registration of Class I medical devices in Brazil. We move beyond the outdated term "cadastro" to provide a detailed breakdown of the current "notificação" (notification) pathway managed by ANVISA. Learn why this simplified, faster route to market is often misunderstood by foreign manufacturers. We explore the critical, non-negotiable requirements that are often overlooked. From the strategic importance of selecting the right Brazil Registration Holder (BRH) to the necessity of a complete technical dossier that ANVISA can audit at any time, we cover the essential groundwork. We share a real-world example of a company whose product launch was delayed for months simply because their translated user manual didn't meet specific Brazilian formatting rules, highlighting how a small oversight can lead to significant commercial setbacks. This episode is a must-listen for any MedTech company looking to successfully enter the lucrative Brazilian market. Key Takeaways: * What is the crucial difference between the "cadastro" and the modern "notificação" process? * Why is your choice of a Brazil Registration Holder (BRH) the single most important decision for your market entry strategy? * Does a "simplified notification" mean you don't need a full technical dossier? * What are the specific labeling and language requirements that cause the most customs delays? * How do you determine if your Class I device needs a separate INMETRO certification? * What post-market surveillance responsibilities fall on your BRH? * Why is assuming "low-risk" means "low-compliance" a major financial risk in Brazil?
