Be ready for UDI in the EU

Unique Device Identification for Medical Devices in Europe.

The EU Regulation on medical devices (“EU MDR”, 2017/745) and the EU Regulation on in-vitro diagnostic devices (“EU IVDR”, 2017/746) provide the legal requirements for the European Unique Device Identification (UDI) system within Europe.

GS1 is also designated as an issuing entity for the UDI in the EU.
