We ensure your compliance with strict EU standards.
Our representation services
At Medicina Legatis, we act as your gateway to the European market. Non-European companies wishing to sell their medical devices within the European Union must appoint an Authorised Representative. That's where we come in: thanks to our expertise, we can help you navigate European regulations, ensuring that your products comply with strict market requirements.
In accordance with the requirements of the European Medical Device Regulation (MDR), all medical devices marketed in Europe must bear the CE conformity mark. This marking guarantees that the device complies with the essential safety and performance requirements for all classes of medical device. It is followed by the number of the notified body responsible for conformity assessment (except for Class I devices). However, certain exceptions apply, in particular for devices used as part of a clinical investigation. Medicina Legatis checks that these obligations are met when new devices are introduced to the European market.
MDR - Medical Devices Regulation
Since May 2021, the Medical Device Directive (MDD) has been replaced by the European Medical Device Regulation (MDR), unifying the rules for the marketing of devices within the European Union. This regulation introduces strict requirements to guarantee the safety of users and patients. Non-European manufacturers must comply with these new regulations in order to access the European market.

We manage the entire compliance process, from checking regulatory requirements to providing support during inspections. We ensure that your products comply with current European standards.
Interaction with the competent authorities
As the European Representative, we act as the main point of contact between your company and the health authorities in the various EU Member States. This includes communicating during inspections and managing incident reports.
EUDAMED
We manage the registration of your medical devices in the European medical devices database (EUDAMED). This includes regular updates and monitoring of information relating to your products.
Post-marketing assistance
Our role doesn't stop once your products enter the European market. We offer post-market follow-up to ensure that your devices continue to meet regulatory requirements, including incident reporting and ongoing monitoring.
