Authorized Representative Services

Your Strategic Regulatory Partner for Medical Devices & IVDs

Manufacturers of medical devices and in vitro diagnostic devices (IVDs) located outside key regulatory regions are required by law to appoint an Authorized Representative (AR) in order to place products on those markets.

Whether you’re entering Europe (EU), the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, QbD Group offers experienced, independent, and fully compliant representation to help you meet all regulatory requirements.

What is an Authorized Representative?

An Authorized Representative is a legal entity established within a specific jurisdiction that acts on behalf of a non-EU / non-UK / non-Swiss manufacturer. They serve as the main point of contact between the manufacturer and local competent authorities, ensuring compliance with the region’s medical device regulations and managing post-market responsibilities.
