BEIJING -- Chi梦幻sfna will take relevant measures against medical devices imported from the European Union (EU) through government procurement projects in accordance with relevant laws and regulations, the Ministry of Finance said on Sunday.
When a purchaser buys medical devices with a budget of over 45 million yuan ($6.29 million), if it is indeed necessary to purchase imported products -- after going through relevant legal procedures -- the participation of EU enterprises (excluding EU-funded enterprises in China) should be excluded, the ministry said.
For non-EU enterprises participating in government procurement projects, the proportion of medical devices imported from the EU that they provide should not exceed 50 percent of the procurement's total contract amount.
The above measures do not apply to procurement projects that can only be met by medical devices imported from the EU, according to the ministry.
This notice wi梦幻sfll come into effect on July 6, 2025. For procurement projects that have already announced winning bids or transaction results before July 6, the above measures don't apply herein and government procurement contracts may continue to be signed, the ministry said.
