Medical Device Single Audit Program (MDSAP)

MS Certification Services

At AQC, we assist medical device manufacturers in obtaining certification under the Medical Device Single Audit Program (MDSAP), enabling them to comply with regulatory requirements across multiple countries through a single audit process.

What is MDSAP?

The Medical Device Single Audit Program (MDSAP) allows manufacturers to undergo one regulatory audit to satisfy the requirements of multiple participating countries. This reduces the burden of multiple audits and streamlines compliance.

MDSAP Participating Regulatory Authorities:

United States

FDA (Food and Drug Administration)

Canada

Health Canada

Australia

TGA (Therapeutic Goods Administration)

Brazil

ANVISA (Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária)

Japan

MHLW/PMDA (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare / Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency)

Mandatory in Canada – Since January 1, 2019, Health Canada requires all Class II, III, and IV medical devices to be certified under MDSAP.
