Decreto 892/2025 (in force 60 days after 17 Dec 2025) and ANMAT Disposición 236/2026 create a notification-based import route for Class I and II medical devices that are authorized for public consumption in at least one country of Anexo I of the decree, and exempt such products from local testing on presentation of a free-sale certificate. Anexo I lists Australia, the EFTA countries, the EU countries, the United States, Israel, Japan and the United Kingdom; China is not included, so an NMPA certificate does not open this route.

Statement

For imported Class II–IV devices, Disposición ANMAT 727/2013 Art. 3 g3) requires an authenticated copy of the registration proof issued by the competent authority of the country where the device is manufactured, issued within the previous 24 months and legalized/apostilled; for China-made devices the NMPA registration certificate is therefore a mandatory dossier document but confers no abridged review. Separately, Art. 5 allows ANMAT, at its discretion, to treat a device authorized by a foreign health authority whose regulatory functions and legislation are 'in line with' Argentina's framework as meeting similar quality/safety/efficacy characteristics and to exempt it from certain dossier items; the disposición deliberately abolished the former country list (Anexo III of Disposición 5267/06), so no official list includes or excludes China.

Notes
  • Official Annex II to Disposition 2978/2026; effective 1 June 2026.
  • Fees can be inflation-adjusted by a later ANMAT disposition, so use the linked tariff before payment.
  • Registrations also carry an annual maintenance charge (tasa anual): the last published maintenance tariff (Disposición ANMAT 5634/2024, 2023 period) was ARS 39,500/52,000/70,000/93,000 per Class I/II/III/IV for marketed devices and ARS 45,500/64,000/81,500/118,500 for not-marketed devices; the current maintenance amounts sit in the 2978/2026 annexes and supersede those figures.

    Note

    Disposición ANMAT 2198/2022 Art. 5 governs registration applications for IVD Group C and D products; for Group D products, which require sample evaluation, the applicant must file a performance test protocol covering a minimum of 100 determinations (protocolo de ensayo para un mínimo de 100 determinaciones). Group C products are within Art. 5 but the 100-determination protocol is stated for Group D only.
