MIAMI, FL – May 9, 2026 – FDA Registration Assistance, a U.S.-based FDA compliance consulting firm serving clients in more than 135 countries, has announced the expansion of its medical device and OTC drug compliance support services for global manufacturers exporting products to the United States.

As international manufacturers continue increasing exports of medical devices and over-the-counter drug products into the U.S. market, many companies are seeking guidance on FDA registration requirements, establishment registration obligations, NDC listings, labeling compliance, and import preparation. FDA Registration Assistance says the company has expanded its compliance infrastructure to better support foreign and domestic businesses navigating increasingly complex FDA regulations for medical devices and OTC drug products.

The company currently works with manufacturers, private label brands, distributors, and importers involved in a wide range of regulated healthcare and wellness products including diagnostic convenience kits, first aid products, topical drug products, personal care items, Class I medical devices, and certain 510(k)-exempt products.

“Many international manufacturers are unsure whether their product is regulated as a cosmetic, OTC drug, medical device, or combination product,” said a spokesperson for FDA Registration Assistance. “Understanding the correct FDA classification is one of the most important steps because it directly impacts registration requirements, labeling obligations, and import procedures.”

FDA Registration Assistance provides support for OTC Drug Establishment Registration, NDC drug listings, U.S. Agent services, FDA label reviews, Initial Importer registration assistance, medical device establishment registration, device listing support, and compliance guidance for eligible Class I and certain Class II medical devices.

According to the company, one of the biggest challenges global manufacturers face is understanding how FDA regulations apply differently depending on product claims, intended use, ingredients, and marketing language. Small differences in product positioning or labeling can significantly change the regulatory pathway required before products can legally enter the United States.

The company says many businesses mistakenly assume that all wellness or healthcare-related products follow the same FDA process. However, FDA Registration Assistance notes that medical devices and OTC drugs often involve separate registration systems, listing requirements, labeling rules, and ongoing annual maintenance obligations.

FDA Registration Assistance also says improper labeling continues to be one of the most common compliance concerns affecting imported medical device and OTC drug products. Labels containing unsupported claims, incorrect product identifiers, missing warnings, or noncompliant formatting may create regulatory risks, customs delays, retailer rejection, or Amazon compliance issues.

“Many companies focus only on getting a registration number without fully understanding whether the product labeling and intended use align with FDA expectations,” the company added. “Reviewing compliance before products enter production can help businesses avoid expensive corrections and shipment delays later.”

The company works with manufacturers worldwide including businesses located throughout Asia, Europe, the Middle East, South America, and Australia. FDA Registration Assistance says many of these companies are entering the U.S. market for the first time and require hands-on guidance throughout the registration and import process.

FDA Registration Assistance also assists companies with understanding Initial Importer responsibilities, U.S. Agent requirements, annual registration renewals, device listing updates, and general FDA import expectations before products are shipped into the United States.

As demand for healthcare, wellness, and medical products continues growing globally, the company says it plans to continue expanding its compliance support services for manufacturers seeking long-term FDA regulatory assistance.

International manufacturers and U.S.-based companies interested in medical device or OTC drug compliance support can contact FDA Registration Assistance directly to discuss their product classification and FDA registration requirements.
