The article is addressed to interpretation of relatively new crime in the Russian Criminal Code, provided for in Art 238.1. This Article provides liability for illegal circulation medical devices without being in compliance with the conformity requirements, where such conformity is required under the Russian legislation. However, the administrative regulations as to registration of medical devices leave some ambiguity related to criminal liability for circulation updated medical devices which were not updated in state medical registries. The author uses the systematic interpretation and concludes that such acts are not criminally punishable being covered by administrative penalties. The author also refers to nature of the criminal deed provided for in Art 238.1 of the Code. He states that this crime should include the real danger to life and health as the necessary requirement for criminal liability for illegal circulation medical devices.
