Full Support for Medical Devices and Other Products in Japan

RIT provides full support for your medical devices, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics by acting as Designated Marketing Authorization Holder (D-MAH). This service is perfect for companies with no Japanese office who intend to market their products in Japan. Japanese Pharmaceutical Affairs Law stipulates that the Marketing Authorization Holder must be a company incorporated in Japan that employs officers responsible for safety and quality of the products. Also the D-MAH must be licensed by the Ministry of Health Labor and Welfare (MHLW).  Without MAH the law does not allow foreign company without legal incorporation in Japan to market its medical devices, pharmaceuticals and even cosmetics.

If you are unsure whether your product will be regarded in Japan as medical device, pharmaceutical or a cosmetic product we are able clarify this point by consulting with Japanese authorities directly.
