About the new landing page
Manufacturers, importers and distributors must meet a number of regulatory requirements in order to supply high-quality medical devices. The medical device establishment licence (MDEL) is an important piece in ensuring that the medical devices supplied to the health care sector and consumers are safe, effective and of high quality.
The Medical Device Compliance Program (MDCP) developed a one-stop web page to make it easier to find the information you need online. You will be able to find a range of information related to the MDEL, such as on:
- establishment licensing and inspections
- reporting device problems, recalls and shortages
