20 Aug 2025
This episode of ASEAN MedTech Insights dives deep into the strategic process of medical device registration in Singapore with the Health Sciences Authority (HSA). We explore why this island nation is a critical gateway to the Southeast Asian market and break down the essential steps for foreign manufacturers to gain market access.From the mandatory appointment of a local Singapore Registrant to leveraging existing international approvals for expedited review, we provide a clear roadmap for navigating one of Asia's most advanced regulatory systems. Discover how Singapore's adoption of the ASEAN Common Submission Dossier Template (CSDT) can become a cornerstone of your regional expansion strategy.Consider this common challenge. A European MedTech scale-up with a breakthrough Class C device and a CE mark wants to enter Asia. Their first choice is Singapore, but they have no physical presence, no local team, and are overwhelmed by the prospect of a long, complex regulatory process. They fear high costs and extended delays that could derail their entire regional launch. This episode details how they can overcome these hurdles by using their CE marking to qualify for an expedited pathway, cutting review times by nearly half and creating a streamlined process for future ASEAN submissions.Key questions from this episode:1.
