Expert European Authorized Representative Services for EU Compliance

For manufacturers located outside the European Union, appointing a European Authorized Representative is a mandatory requirement before placing medical devices on the EU market. The EU AR acts as the legal representative within the EU and serves as the primary point of contact for regulatory authorities.

Cert3Global offers structured European Authorized Representative services designed to ensure compliance with MDR and IVDR requirements. We support manufacturers by managing regulatory responsibilities, maintaining documentation, and facilitating communication with competent authorities.

Our approach ensures that your compliance obligations are handled accurately, reducing risks and helping you maintain uninterrupted access to the EU market.

What is a European Authorized Representative?

A European Authorized Representative (EU AR) is a natural or legal person established within the European Union who has received a written mandate from a non-EU manufacturer to act on their behalf for regulatory purposes.

The EU AR ensures that the manufacturer complies with applicable EU regulations, including MDR and IVDR. This includes verifying documentation, maintaining regulatory records, and acting as the official contact point for competent authorities.

For non-EU manufacturers, the European Authorized Representative service is essential to legally place products on the EU market and maintain ongoing compliance.

Why is a European Authorized Representative Required?

Under MDR and IVDR regulations, non-EU manufacturers must appoint a European Authorized Representative to place medical devices on the EU market. Without an EU AR, products cannot be legally marketed within the European Union.
The EU AR plays a critical role in ensuring that regulatory requirements are met and that communication with authorities is handled efficiently.
