What is ISO 13485:2016 Certification?

ISO 13485:2016 is the internationally recognized standard for Quality Management Systems (QMS) tailored exclusively to the medical device industry, covering design, development, production, installation, and servicing of medical devices. It emphasizes risk management, design controls, traceability, and documentation requirements that ensure devices meet safety and performance specifications while complying with global regulatory frameworks including FDA, EU MDR, and other national requirements. This certification demonstrates an organization’s capability to consistently produce medical devices that are safe for their intended use.

The standard requires rigorous validation protocols, sterile processing controls where applicable, post-market surveillance, and comprehensive complaint handling procedures to protect patient safety. Organizations certified under ISO 13485:2016 prove their commitment to quality excellence in medical device manufacturing, facilitating market access across multiple jurisdictions, satisfying regulatory audits, and building confidence with healthcare providers, patients, and regulatory authorities worldwide.
