From 28 May 2026 manufacturers must register new MDR/IVDR devices in EUDAMED before placing them on the EU market.
Legacy devices must be registered by 28 November 2026, and certificates issued before that date must be uploaded by 28 May 2027.
These dates govern how complete the EU side of this database can be: what the public EUDAMED interface returns keeps growing as registration proceeds, so the EU figures here are a rising lower bound rather than a final count.
How these dates affect verification
Public EUDAMED data is a snapshot of registration progress, not of the market. Before the legacy-device deadline of 28 November 2026, a company with no EUDAMED record may simply not have completed registration; it does not follow that the company holds no CE certificate or does not sell in the EU. The EU figures here are therefore usable only as a lower bound and will rise over time. To judge a specific company, read its EU manufacturer SRN and authorised representative alongside the record count — both appear in the compliance block on the company page and say more than the count alone.
Who in this database it affects
The database currently finds 1,260 Chinese companies with UDI-DI records in EUDAMED. That number will keep rising as the two registration deadlines pass, which is why the EU figures here are a rising lower bound rather than a final count. EU picture: the by-market page.
How our data is verified
Every market figure on this site is the result of **re-checking each manufacturer name record by record**, not a raw hit count from a registry search interface. Name search in these registries is generally a substring match: searching EUDAMED for "Edan" returns 1,933 records, of which 434 belong to HANEDAN in Turkey and 300 to TeDan Surgical in the United States — taking the raw count would overstate by more than 60 percent. We therefore require the distinctive token to appear as a whole word and demand a genuinely distinguishing shared token; generic words such as "medical" or "systems" never qualify on their own, and the similar names that were excluded are listed on each company page. Each market counts a different unit (the EU counts UDI-DI device records, the US counts listed device types, Canada and Brazil count valid registrations, Korea counts quality-system certifications), so figures cannot be summed or compared across markets. The full basis, official portals and query paths are at the methodology page.
