About this listen

 This episode of MENA MedTech Insights dives deep into the true cost of medical device registration in the GCC, moving beyond the well-known government fees. We uncover the various hidden expenses that can surprise manufacturers, including mandatory local representation, document translation, and embassy legalization costs, providing a realistic financial picture for entering key markets like Saudi Arabia and the UAE. Imagine a European stent manufacturer budgeting $4,000 for SFDA fees in Saudi Arabia, only to discover their total out-of-pocket cost is nearly triple that amount. This episode reveals the hidden expenses they faced, from mandatory representative fees to document legalization, that can derail market entry plans and timelines. We explain how to avoid these surprises. What You'll Learn: - Why is the official government registration fee just the tip of the iceberg? - What are the mandatory "hidden costs" for market access in Saudi Arabia and the UAE? - How much should you budget for a local authorized representative, and is it a one-time fee? - Do you need to translate your entire technical dossier into Arabic? - How do registration costs fundamentally differ between a low-risk and a high-risk device? - What are the annual fees you must plan for *after* your initial registration is approved? - How can embassy legalization requirements impact your submission timeline and budget? - Can a single regulatory strategy effectively cover the entire GCC region? At Pure Global, we transform these challenges into opportunities. We offer end-to-end regulatory consulting for MedTech and IVD companies, using local expertise and advanced AI to streamline your access to over 30 global markets, including the entire GCC.
