CE Marking IVDR

The new European Medical Device Regulation (MDR, EU 2017/745) replaced the Medical Devices Directive (MDD, 93/42/EEC) and Active Implantable Medical Devices Directive (AIMDD, 90/385/EEC) implemented on May 26, 2021; and In Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices Regulation (IVDR, EU 2017/746) replaced the In Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices Directives (IVDD, 98/79/EC) progressively from May 26, 2022.

Non-EU/EEA manufacturers of medical devices and in vitro medical devices must comply with the requirements of the European MDD/IVDD/MDR/IVDR. These manufacturers have to CE-mark their devices and gain access to the European /European Economic Area (EEA) market. CE marking signifies that their devices have been assessed and they meet the safety, health, and environmental protection as required.
