Medical Devices Classification Tool/
This tool is intended to assist you with the classification of your medical device by walking through the classification rules found in Schedule 1 of the Medical Devices Regulations.
It is only intended to classify products that meet the definition of a “device” in the Food and Drugs Act and a “medical device” into Class I, II, III or IV.
It will **not** determine whether your product is *not* a medical device or if it falls under another category (e.g., drug, consumer product). Users must confirm that their product meets the definition of a “medical device” before proceeding.

Please note: The tool provides classification guidance **based strictly on your inputs** and should **not** be taken as a final decision by Health Canada.
