Manufacturer91798%Registered as a manufacturer with an address in this market, including foreign registrations.

An establishment can hold several roles, so the shares add to more than 100%.

Who holds the registration in the United States

In the United States the manufacturer registers its own establishment with the FDA and lists its devices; there is no local holder requirement. A US importer must also register as an initial importer, and the 510(k) or PMA stays in the manufacturer's name, so a distributor can be replaced without losing market access.

This is the general rule, not legal advice. The registration clause in the first distributor contract decides who controls the market later.
