What you receive

Not just a yes or no

A route-by-route answer. Separate product certificates, dossier evidence, import documents, and facility licences stay separate.

Maintained country rule

What this Medical-device import (conformity) certificate check is screening

Separates reusable product approval from consignment, customs, PVoC, CoC, and HS-code documents. Handled as an import or shipment-level obligation.

Source association reviewed. The source association has been reviewed. This does not verify every rule, date or product-specific conclusion; read the cited provisions and their limits.

Requirement family: Import conformity and shipment certificates
Regulatory object: finished device
Maintained rule status: mandatory at import
Useful product facts: HS code for every shipped object, shipment purpose, importer, origin, product certificate, and consignment details.

Government Decree No. 429-Ն of 30 March 2023 requires an import (conformity) certificate for every consignment of medical devices. The Ministry of Health issues it on the expert conclusion of the expert organisation, and paragraph 2 forbids the importer to sell, distribute, release or use the imported devices before it is issued. Applications go through the National Single Window for Foreign Trade (paragraph 9); paragraph 18 makes the certificate conditional on presenting a state-duty payment receipt. This is the operative Armenian device gate.

How to read the answer

Classification is only the first layer

A device may have one medical risk class and still trigger separate radio, electrical, measurement, radiation, environmental, import, or installation requirements. The checker keeps each regulatory object separate.

Product approval

A certificate or approval attached to the finished product, component, or radio host.

Dossier or import evidence

Testing can belong inside the medical dossier, while some documents apply to each shipment.

Site or operator licence

Radiation, installation, use, or measurement controls may apply to a facility or operator.

About this checker

A preliminary tool, not a regulatory determination

Describe the complete product — radio, power, measurement, radiation, battery, materials, accessories, intended use, import route, and existing approvals. The free checker maps those facts to the maintained Armenia scheme matrix and links each route to its maintained source associations, with reviewed, candidate and unresolved states shown separately.

Use the result to identify questions and official sources. Final scope can depend on exact models, modules, bands, components, claims, HS codes, import structure, installation site, and current authority interpretation.

Is this the same as medical device classification in Armenia?: No. Risk classification determines the main medical-device pathway. This checker runs after classification and looks for additional product certificates, dossier evidence, import documents, and facility or operator licences.
Does “no separate certificate” mean no testing is required?: No. Safety, EMC, performance, or other evidence can still be required inside the medical-device dossier even when there is no separate national product certificate.
Is the result an official regulatory determination?: No. It is a preliminary applicability assessment. Review the linked official source and confirm the final route with the relevant authority, certification body, importer, or regulatory professional.
