Guangdong provincial science and technology committee office issued the Guangdong Brain–Computer Interface Technology and Industry Collaborative Development Action Plan (2026–2030). The plan aims to accelerate approval and commercialization of BCI medical devices by strengthening technical support, building provincial review and testing capacity, and bolstering specialized review, inspection and testing staff; it directs the NMPA medical device technical review and inspection Greater Bay Area sub‑center to expand BCI review qualifications. It calls for deeper R&D–regulatory linkage and full‑chain guidance to steer more BCI devices into innovation and priority registration channels and speed market entry. The plan instructs that BCI‑related services be incorporated into medical service pricing and that eligible services be covered by medical insurance.
