Licensed UAE Representation

UAE Local Applicant, Marketing Authorization Holder & Regulatory Interface

Local Representation Is a Regulatory Control Point — Not Only an Address. MOHAP requires the Marketing Authorization Holder company and product manufacturing sites to be registered before product registration, and the applicant for medical-equipment registration must be an appropriately licensed medical warehouse or marketing office. This makes the local regulatory interface central to both submission and lifecycle compliance.

When This Support Is Needed

A foreign manufacturer without a commercial presence in the UAE requires an authorized local applicant
Selecting and qualifying a licensed medical warehouse or marketing office to submit MOHAP registrations
Establishing regulatory governance between the overseas manufacturer, MAH, and local distributors
Restructuring or transferring MOHAP product registrations between commercial agents in the UAE

What We Challenge Before Submission

Does the local applicant hold an active MOHAP license for a medical warehouse or marketing office?
Does the regulatory agreement protect manufacturer IP while fulfilling statutory reporting duties?
Can the local applicant produce technical files immediately upon official MOHAP inspector request?
How quickly must the manufacturer notify the local applicant of design changes, safety alerts, or global recalls?
Are commercial distributor arrangements kept distinct from regulatory registration ownership?
