SAHPRA published version 1 of MD08-2025/2026 on 19 August 2025, setting regulatory requirements for AI/ML-enabled medical devices in South Africa.
What this does not establish
The guidance does not itself authorize any product or establish performance in South African care settings.
Counterevidence & uncertainty
Classification, software updates, adaptive behavior, cybersecurity, local validation, post-market monitoring, and later revisions affect obligations.
What would change the reading
Track SAHPRA revisions, product registrations, safety notices, enforcement, and clinical/post-market evidence.
