Compliance of QMS and FDA 820

Just learning about different Quality Management Systems in college. I'm wondering if an Irish Company wants to sell medical devices into USA, is it enough for them to implement ISO 13485, or would they have to implement FDA 820 as well? Can a company have more than one QMS?

Answer :

It is sufficient to have just a single set of Quality Management System in place to meet the different regulatory requirements. Any devices intended for import into the States has to comply with the requirements of FDA 820 depending on the classification and registration route of the device.
