New rules for registration of Medicines & Med Devices in Uzbekistan

February 16, 2026

Referring to Resolution No.738 of the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of Uzbekistan dated November 24, 2025, new provisions regulating the procedure for state registration of medicinal products and medical devices have been adopted coming into force on February 26, 2026.

The main changes relate to the revision and expansion of the list of documents to be submitted to the Authority, requirements for translations and set clear timelines for completing all stages of the registration process.

In addition, in accordance with the new regulations a foreign legal manufacturer of medical devices must appoint an Authorized Representative of the Manufacturer with its registered office in the territory of Uzbekistan. Any medical device must apply to one authorized representative only.

Please note that at the discretion of the manufacturer, a distributor, or a representative office, or a third party may act as an authorized representative of the manufacturer. The authorized representative is the link between regulatory and market surveillance authorities, revenue and fee authorities, consumers and the manufacturer, and performs post-marketing supervision. The authorized representative acts on the basis of the Power of Attorney from the manufacturer.

In case of appointment of our company as the authorized representative, it will be possible to have several distributors selling medical devices in Uzbekistan.
