# ANMAT medical regulation and tariff changes in Argentina > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/anmat-medical-regulation-and-tariff-changes-in-argentina > Updated: 2026-09-21T21:59:11.000Z. Sources: 7. Developments: 2. Argentina’s National Administration of Drugs, Foods and Medical Technology (ANMAT) has introduced several regulatory measures affecting medical supplies and imports. Under Disposition 5461/2026, which took effect on September 1, the agency implemented new tariffs on high-cost medicines and complex medical devices. These fees are applied to the FOB value of goods, with rates ranging from 1.25% to 1.5% and specific maximum caps. The measure has drawn criticism from patient groups and disability advocates, as reports indicate the agency has stopped accepting or has invalidated existing exemption requests. This has reportedly caused delays for individuals with a Unique Disability Certificate (CUD) who depend on imported supplies. Separately, via Disposition 5979/2026, ANMAT prohibited the use, sale, and distribution of specific batches of Medtronic Latin America Inc. products following reports of theft. The ban targets Paradigm 3.0 ml reservoirs, MiniMed subcutaneous infusion sets, and Guardian 4 sensors to prevent the circulation of items where traceability and storage conditions cannot be guaranteed. ## Timeline ### 2026-09-21: ANMAT implements new tariffs on high-cost medicine imports ANMAT has introduced new import tariffs on high-cost medicines and complex medical devices in Argentina, causing delays for patients with disabilities who rely on imported medical supplies. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/anmat-implements-new-tariffs-on-high-cost-medicine-imports ### 2026-09-21: ANMAT bans specific insulin pump supplies following theft ANMAT has banned specific Medtronic insulin pump reservoirs, infusion sets, and glucose sensors in Argentina after they were reported stolen, citing concerns over safety and traceability. 5 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/anmat-bans-specific-insulin-pump-supplies-following-theft --- Cite as: ANMAT medical regulation and tariff changes in Argentina.
