The Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) has extended the transition period for the introduction of a unified system for the registration of medical devices. The relevant amending protocol to the sectoral agreement was signed by the Member States on 29 December 2025.
Under the revised timeline, applications for registration under national legislation may continue to be submitted until 31 December 2027. At the same time, manufacturers may still opt to use the registration procedures provided for under EAEU law.
The decision is intended to support a gradual integration of national regulatory systems and to reduce the administrative burden on both manufacturers and regulatory authorities. The protocol will be applied provisionally ten days after signature and will enter into force once all domestic ratification procedures have been completed.
