ECG is

viewed as a medical device which mean it require official approval from the

government of a country before it's legal for apple to offer


these are

the countries which has provided with said approval so far

watchOS - Feature Availability - Apple


ECG

implies that citizens' medical data be stored by a foreign third-party company

without individual approval by the government of said country, and that is not

something all countries feel comfortable with.


your best bet is to contact your local health authorities, when they approve it, it will likely be included in the next watchOS version
