Venezuela Medical Device Registration

Regulatory Authority

• ServicioAutonomo de Contraloria Sanitaria (SACS)

In 1994, the creation of the Sector General Directorate of Sanitary Comptroller was mandated through Presidential Decree No. 472, issued on 12/27/1994. This entity was tasked with overseeing the registration, supervision, and inspection of drugs, cosmetics, food and beverages, equipment, buildings, and health professions. Agreements were established with state governors to facilitate the administration of procedural matters and sanctions in this domain. Consequently, the Divisions were reorganized into Directorates, namely the Directorate of Drugs and Cosmetics and the Directorate of Food Hygiene.

• Formerly the Office of Registration and Control for Medical and Paramedical Equipment and Supplies – Medical Devices and IVDDs must be registered with the OICEMP
