US FDA Agent Representation for Medical Device and IVD Companies

Appoint Unikal or associates as your registered US FDA Agent representation and learn about our responsibilities as the liaison between your medical device or IVD company and the FDA.
Few answers:

  1. Why is the representation requirement in the United States?

  2. What are the responsibilities of a US Agent?

  3. Can we appoint a distributor as our US Agent?

The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requires all medical device and IVD companies without a presence in the United States to appoint a registered US FDA Agent. The US FDA Agent must be a resident of the United States or maintain a physical place of business in the US. Your US Agent serves as a liaison between your company and the FDA.

Q1. What are the responsibilities of a US FDA Agent?

Appointing a US Agent is more than a regulatory obligation. The responsibilities of the US Agent include:

  • Assisting the FDA in communications with your company;

  • Responding to questions concerning your imported products sold in the US;

  • Assisting the FDA in scheduling inspections of your facilities.

The FDA may also provide information or documents to your US agent, which is considered equivalent to providing them to your company. For this reason, it is important to appoint a professional, dependable regulatory firm to represent your interests.

Please note that we do NOT provide US Agent representation for FOOD or PHARMACEUTICAL companies.
