| Devices Affected: |
| Latex Condoms and Latex Condoms with Spermicidal Lubricant |

|
| Type of Standard: |
| Vertical, International |
| Extent of Recognition: |
Complete standard with the following exceptions:
Section 6 (Burst Volume and Pressure) and Section 8 (Freedom from Holes)
FDA's recognition of these two sections applies only to condoms whose nominal dimensions fall within the following limits:
- condom lay-flat width is less than 54 mm
- condom length is greater than 160 mm
Condoms whose dimensions fall outside this dimensional envelope will be carefully evaluated with respect to potential impact on clinical performance (i.e., slip and break during actual use), as well as with respect to potential impact on key condom tests, e.g., airburst properties and freedom from holes. FDA will also carefully evaluate any condom whose nominal width exceeds 58 mm.
Section 11.2.1 (Symbols) FDA does not recognize the symbol requirements of ISO 15223 and EN 980.
NOTE: General labeling requirements are given in 21 CFR 801.
NOTE: The labeling requirement for condom expiration date, including accelerated and real-time testing, is given in 21 CFR 801.435.
NOTE: FDA referee testing for water leakage (freedom from holes) is intended to follow the current FDA Compliance Policy Guide, sec. 345.100 Condoms: Defects - Criteria for Direct Reference Seizure (CPG 7124.21) and methodology comparable to the hang-and-roll method described in Annex L of ISO 4074:2002/Cor.2:2008(E) Natural latex rubber condoms - requirements and test methods, Technical Corrigendum 2. |
