EU Authorized Representative service
Your pathway to the European Union
medical device market
The EU MDR (2017/745) and and EU IVDR (2017/746) state that, regardless of the device class, to place a device into the EU market, a manufacturer established outside the EU, is required to have an EU Authorized Representative. The representative must be located within the European Union and is designated with a mandate.
EU Authorized Representative service by MDBS
Fineltec's Medical Device Business Solutions (MDBS) offers EU Authorized Representative service for non-EU medical device manufacturers, who want to access the European market.
MDBS will guide you through the process of EU Authorized Representative designation. Once the service is up and running, MDBS will carry out all the EU Authorized Representative duties for you as required in EU MDR (2017/745) and EU IVDR (2017/746).
The mandate
EU MDR (2017/745) and EU IVDR (2017/746) require that the EU Authorized Representative designation is made in the form of a mandate. This mandate is to be understood as a power of attorney by which the manufacturer gives another legal entity the authority to perform specific tasks for them.
The mandate
- Shall be done in writing
- Shall be accepted by both parties
- Shall provide a sole authorized representative for a device
- Shall cover all devices of the same device group
- Shall specify the list of authorized representative tasks
- Shall not delegate any of the manufacturer’s obligations to the authorised representative
Conditions for the Designation
