In addition to Medical Device Licensing (MDL), many companies operating in Canada must also apply for a Medical Device Establishment Licence (MDEL), which is required for manufacturers, importers, and distributors of medical devices. Sobel offers strategic support throughout this process—helping you understand whether your organization requires an MDEL, preparing the necessary documentation, and supporting you through the application steps with Health Canada.
Beyond the initial licensing and registration processes, our team also provides ongoing regulatory support to help your business remain aligned with Health Canada’s evolving requirements. We assist in maintaining compliant quality management systems, preparing for audits, managing post-market surveillance documentation, and adapting to changes in regulations that may affect your operations.
Our role is to support your team with clear guidance, up-to-date expertise, and efficient project coordination—so you can confidently manage regulatory expectations while focusing on your company’s growth in the Canadian medical device market.
