Importing Medical Paper To The UK? Save £5000+ In Fees & Cut Import Time By 6 Months!

If you’re looking for a reliable manufacturer of Medical Chart Paper to import into the United Kingdom, you may have encountered challenges such as the different paper specifications required for different types of medical machines. This often forces distributors to source from multiple suppliers to meet their needs, creating inefficiencies in cost and logistics.

Once you find a manufacturer that provides the paper you’re looking for, they may be reluctant to deal with the UK regulations. It can be complex and time-consuming. From appointing a UK Responsible Person, preparing many documents, and MHRA registration to compliance checks, these requirements can delay imports by months and add thousands of pounds in extra costs.

However, tele-paper offers the perfect solution. Our Sonomed medical chart paper is registered with UK MHRA, and we have appointed a UK Responsible Person. This eliminates regulatory requirements, cuts import time by up to six months, and saves you over £5,000 in fees. Plus, with over 250 types of medical chart paper available, you can source all your paper needs with us. This will reduce costs, streamline logistics, and allow you to stock up on healthcare-required standard-quality paper.

Saving You £5000+ Fees And 6 Months Of Import Time

When importing medical chart paper into the UK, the manufacturer is required to register the products with the UK MHRA. The procedure would cost them a long time with additional fees and it might be too much of a hassle for them, that you are forced to do it. Even if they wanted to, the procedure alone would take around 6 months, before they could export it to you. So you’re looking at 8 months to a year just to stock up. The procedure is as follows:

Procedure for Importing Medical Devices Into The UK:

• Check UK MHRA Regulations. The research phase is to find out what is needed to register the product. Plus, you or the exporter might need to consult a regulatory expert which will involve consulting fees. (1-2 weeks). 

• Deal with Multiple Manufacturers. If the manufacturer you found does not have all the paper specifications you need, you’d have to find additional manufacturers. (1-2 months).

• Find a UK Responsible Person.  Appoint a UK Responsible Person to handle regulatory approvals. This includes fees for their yearly renewal services. (1 month).

• Register with UK MHRA. Submit registration for approval. They’ll need product certifications such as CE, and ISO 13485. They’ll also need documents such as device description, and declaration of conformity. It will take some time to gather all the documents and submit them. (1 – 2 months).

• Pass UK Compliance Checks. After all the documents are submitted, you or the exporter need to wait for approval. This is to make sure the product meets UK medical device standards (1 month).

It may take up to 6 months or more to import medical chart paper if the manufacturer does not have their product registered with UK MHRA and without a UK Responsible Person to assist. Not to mention other fees you would incur to get the product registered, which for us total up to more than £5000.

When you’re importing with us, you do not need to go through all these procedures, as the importing requirement is already done by us. You also do not need to pay any additional fees. In other words, you will save 6 months of importing time and more than £5000+ of fees!

Sonomed Medical Chart Paper: Meeting Standard Healthcare Requirement

Using substandard medical chart paper often leads to significant problems that can compromise both machine functionality and the data. Poor-quality paper may cause frequent printer jams due to misalignment or imperfect die-cutting, potentially damaging the printer which would result in a costly repair.

Furthermore, lower-grade paper may not retain images for a long time, rendering data unreadable after a few years. This is critical because UK regulations require medical records, such as EEG, ECG, and CTG charts, to be retained for 6 to 8 years. Sonomed eliminates these risks by offering paper that ensures image retention for up to 10 years, supporting regulatory compliance and peace of mind for healthcare professionals.

Sonomed Medical Chart Paper is meticulously designed to meet the rigorous standards required for EEG, ECG, and CTG applications. We prioritize quality and compatibility to ensure the machine is also protected from paper jams, causing damages and extra cost in fixing.
