What to Know for Medical Device UDI Compliance in South Korea

 

South Korea Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS) began UDI activity in 2018 with the MFDS notification No. 2020-29. UDI compliance is mandatory and was implemented by Article 20 of Medical Device Act (No. 14330) and Article 54-2 of Enforcement Regulations of Medical Device Act (No. 1512). Registration in the Integrated Medical Device Information System (IMDIS) is required in order to market a medical device in South Korea. The next mandate for UDI reported and on-label compliance is due 2021 September for Class II. Track and Trace requirements are due 2021 July for Class III.
