Does my medical device need AMSSNuR authorisation for ionizing-radiation installations and sources in Morocco?

Describe your device to check whether AMSSNuR authorisation for ionizing-radiation installations and sources may apply, why, what facts are missing, and which official source to review.

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 AMSSNuR authorisation for ionizing-radiation installations and sources check is screening

Separates product, supplier, import, facility, source-holder, and operator radiation obligations. Applies to the facility, operator, or installation rather than only the product.

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: Ionizing radiation and radioactive sources
Regulatory object: radiation source or installation
Maintained rule status: mandatory for use site
Useful product facts: X-ray or radioactive source, modality, energy, import purpose, installation site, and operator role.

Loi n° 142-12 relative à la sûreté et à la sécurité nucléaires et radiologiques (dahir n° 1-14-149 du 22 août 2014, Bulletin Officiel n° 6292 du 18 septembre 2014) art. 45 makes the authorisations of art. 7 conditional, among other things, on the conformity of the ionizing-radiation sources 'aux normes de conception et de fabrication requises pour leur certification' and on the safety analysis of the installation, and art. 77 requires those sources to conform to Moroccan standards or, failing that, to the required international standards. Art. 46 gives the Agence a decision period of two to six months from receipt of the complete dossier. The authorisation attaches to the installation and its operator, so a device that generates ionizing radiation is caught through the site where it is installed and used, not through the device registration. The implementing decree on authorisations and declarations for these activities is décret n° 2-20-131 du 25 février 2021, recorded as such in CNESTEN's regulatory framework; the decree text itself was not retrieved and its class-by-class rules are therefore not asserted here.

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 Morocco 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 Morocco?: 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.
