National registration (all classes)(Ministry of Health registration after the preliminary technical works)

Point 3: the complex of preliminary technical works, which is the substantive evaluation, may not exceed 90 calendar days and can be extended to at most 150 only by agreement between the applicant and the Centre for Expertise and Testing in Healthcare

The Centre is expressly forbidden to widen the scope of those works, which is what previously drove the period out to 300 days under the repealed 2008 regime

The clock is route-wide: Resolution 211 varies the dossier by risk class but not the period

Tail steps: point 10 gives the Ministry 5 working days to notify its decision, and point 12 gives 5 working days to issue the certificate once the state duty is confirmed paid
