FDA 510(k) Submission Services to Obtain a 510k Approval
Emergo Group helps support medical device companies from around the world seeking approval to sell their products in the United States. One of the first steps for medical device companies who manufacture Class 2 devices (and a small number of Class 1/3 devices) is to file a Premarket Notification with the Food and Drug Administration, also known as an FDA 510k application. A Predicate Device – that is a device similar to the one for which approval is being sought – must already be approved and exist on the US market. We have successfully prepared and submitted FDA 510 (k) applications for more than 100 companies worldwide.

Who must submit a FDA 510(k) Premarket Notification?
- Manufacturers or importer/exporters wishing to introduce a new device (for which a predicate device exists) to the US market.
- Manufacturers introducing a new finished device to the US market. If you manufacturer of a component, you may not need to file a FDA 510(k) unless the component is also sold as a replacement part, or is a software product working in conjunction with devices.
- Specification developers that design a device and have it manufactured by another company for eventual sale in the US.
- Companies that are proposing a significantly different design or different Intended Use for a product that is already sold in the US.
- Repackagers or relabelers of devices.
