Post-Registration Activities

After approval, the registration has to keep up with the product: changes, revalidations, certificates and the history of every filing, with each product’s expiry calendar.

Common questions before you start.

When do I need to file a post-registration change?

Whenever anything approved changes: formula or components, manufacturer, manufacturing site, labelling, packaging, shelf life or the holder’s company name. Each type of change has its own filing subject and documents, and some require approval before implementation.

How far in advance should I apply for revalidation?

It depends on the product. For medical devices, for example, the registration is valid for ten years and renewal is requested between twelve and six months before expiry; device notifications do not expire. We keep each product’s calendar so the filing goes in within the right window.

What is technovigilance and who is responsible?

It is the monitoring of adverse events and technical complaints involving medical devices once they are on the market. The responsibility lies with the registration or notification holder, which must keep procedures in place and notify ANVISA.
