We explore how this rule, effective February 2, 2026, aligns 21 CFR Part 820 with the international standard ISO 13485:2016, discuss key changes, FDA-specific additions, and the crucial steps medical device manufacturers must take to prepare for this transition.

• Beyond ISO 13485, what supplemental FDA-specific requirements must manufacturers address?
