The challenge

The same product follows six different sets of rules

Professionals already registering products with ANVISA discover that, outside Brazil, classifications change, holders change and seemingly obvious shortcuts do not always exist. Getting any of these wrong leads to regulatory requests, rework and months of delay.

Classification is not the same

Mexico uses three classes, Colombia uses I, IIa, IIb and III, and Chile only requires registration for products brought under control by a decree.

The holder changes from country to country

Legal representatives, authorised establishments, importers with their own certification: each agency requires a different local company.

Shortcuts only where the law permits

Reliance, recognition and use of existing evidence are not synonymous. Knowing where ANVISA registration opens doors changes the entire sequence.

Who is this for?

For those who already know ANVISA and need to take a product to the region

The course does not repeat Brazilian regulatory basics. They are the reference point for comparison throughout all modules.

  • Regulatory Affairs and Quality professionals with experience in notification and registration under RDC 751/2022
  • Manufacturers and importers seeking to expand their portfolio from Brazil into Latin America
  • Consultants serving clients with a multi-country strategy
  • Teams seeking to use AI in regulatory processes with control, traceability and human review
What you will be able to do

From classification to a submission plan, with the regulation to hand

01

Classify in six countries

Regulatory assessment and classification of the same device, with a regulation and article behind every decision.

02

Choose the right pathway

Where reliance applies, where overseas evidence helps and where full registration is required.

03

Build a core dossier

A harmonised IMDRF structure with national modules for each agency.

04

Use AI with governance

An AI usage policy within the QMS, tool validation and mandatory human review.

05

Create AI agents

Specialist agents for registration stages, each with defined limits and review points.

06

Plan the submission

Country sequence, schedule and documentary dependencies in an actionable plan.

An ongoing case study

A real product, from the first map to the submission plan

Medical electrical equipment with embedded software, ANVISA Class III, with MDSAP certification and FDA approval. Each module adds a layer to the same project, and in the final session you present the complete plan for all five countries.

The course rule

AI proposes. The professional verifies.

No regulatory statement enters the dossier without a person checking the regulation and article. Learn to use AI to gain speed without losing traceability.
