Overview
When it comes to health products in Brazil, understanding Anvisa’s regulatory requirements is essential. Two concepts often mentioned in this context are product registration and notification. Although both are necessary processes to guarantee the safety and efficacy of products available on the market, they have important differences in terms of criteria, requirements and procedures.
It is important to clearly and objectively explore the main distinctions between registration and notification, helping companies, healthcare professionals and consumers to better understand what each process means and when they apply.

Understand the main advantages of this registration, highlighting how it benefits the population, the health sector and companies.
