EU Authorised Representative (EU-REP) Services

Need an EU Authorised Representative for Your Medical Device or IVD? QbD Group ensures your compliance with MDR and IVDR as your trusted EU-REP partner. 
 
If you're a medical device or in vitro diagnostic (IVD) manufacturer based outside the EU/EEA, you are legally required to appoint an EU Authorised Representative based within the EU to ensure and maintain compliance with the MDR and IVDR. This is a crucial step in complying with Regulation (EU) 2017/745 (MDR) and Regulation (EU) 2017/746 (IVDR).
 
QbD Group offers professional EU-REP services, supporting you with local representation and ensuring compliance with all regulatory obligations. We are a proud member of the European Association of Authorised Representatives (EAAR) and operate in strict accordance with its Code of Conduct.

What is an EU-REP and who needs one?

An EU-REP is a natural or legal person established within the European Union who has received and accepted a written mandate from a manufacturer located outside the EU. This mandate authorises the EU-REP to act on the manufacturer's behalf in relation to specific tasks under MDR or IVDR. Who needs an EU-REP?

Manufacturers based outside the European Economic Area (EEA)

Companies placing devices on the EU market under their own name

Startups and SMEs expanding from the US, UK, or Asia into Europe
