What's inside

Five pages, zero fluff

Every figure in this guide traces to a named source — CDSCO import-license guidance and MDR 2017 practice.

The MD-14 → MD-15 route

MD-14 filed on SUGAM leads to the MD-15 license — perpetual validity, 6–9 month typical timelines.

The Indian Authorized Agent

Foreign manufacturers cannot file directly — the agent files, answers queries, and handles vigilance.

Fees and the playbook

$1K–$3K per site plus per-device fees by class, clinical data for Class C/D, and why form consistency decides everything.
