EUmAccess GmbH – EU Authorised Representative Certificate of Confirmation (E.A.R COC) for Class I Devices

What is the E.A.R Certificate of Confirmation (COC)?

For Class I Medical Devices (self-certified under MDR 2017/745), non-EU manufacturers must appoint an EU Authorised Representative (E.A.R) to ensure regulatory compliance. Once appointed, EUmAccess GmbH issues a Certificate of Confirmation (COC), officially verifying that we act as your E.A.R.

This E.A.R COC is a key document used for regulatory compliance, customs clearance, and market placement within the European Economic Area (EEA).

Who Needs an E.A.R COC?

Non-EU manufacturers of self-certified Class I medical devices under MDR 2017/745 must appoint an EU Authorised Representative (E.A.R.) and obtain an E.A.R Certificate of Confirmation (COC) before marketing their products in the EU/EEA.

Note:
