Singapore-Malaysia MedTech Corridor: Unpacking the New Regulatory Shortcut with Pure Global.

This week, we dive into the groundbreaking new regulatory pilot program launched between Singapore and Malaysia. This collaboration promises a faster, streamlined approval process for medical devices, creating a powerful new corridor for market access in ASEAN. But what looks like a simple shortcut is filled with critical details that can make or break your entry strategy.

Imagine your company, with a device already approved in Singapore, expects a quick entry into Malaysia under the new pilot. However, your application gets bogged down in endless queries. The promised three-month approval stretches into nine, all due to a minor documentation mismatch and a misunderstanding of local representation rules. This episode unpacks the hidden complexities to ensure you seize the opportunity, not the delay.
