ABSTRACT

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or Agency) is announcing the availability of a final guidance entitled "Notifying FDA of a Permanent Discontinuance or Interruption in Manufacturing of a Device Under Section 506J of the FD&C Act." This guidance updates the previous version of the guidance, of the same title, issued on November 17, 2023, and finalizes the concurrently issued draft guidance entitled "Select Updates for the 506J Guidance: 506J Device List and Additional Notifications." This guidance finalizes a list of device product codes for which a manufacturer of such devices is required to notify FDA in accordance with the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) (hereafter referred to as the "506J Device List") and clarifies that manufacturers may submit voluntary notifications regarding supply chain issues at any time, unrelated to the declaration or potential declaration of a public health emergency (PHE).
