Notified body · Verified from EUDAMED
We show only what EUDAMED publishes. EUDAMED is still being populated — the absence of a certificate here does not mean none exists. Every figure links back to the official record so you can verify it yourself.
Lens 01 · Mandate
The regulations this body is designated under, plus any predecessor directives.
| Regulation | Designation | Authoritative record |
|---|---|---|
| MDR | Designated | Verify on NANDO ↗ |
| MDD(legacy) | Designated (legacy) | — |
Per-regulation status (active / suspended / withdrawn) is not published in the EUDAMED payload — we show Designated and link to NANDO rather than a status we cannot verify. Official scope of designation is published on NANDO →
Lens 02 · From the certificates
Device-group families derived from the scope text of this body's issued certificates (often legacy nomenclature) — not the official NANDO designation scope.
Read from the certificate scope text, which is messy free-text and skews to legacy nomenclature. We render only the code families actually present rather than imply a modern device-group breakdown that isn't recorded.
These families are read from the issued certificates' scope text (often legacy nomenclature), not the official NANDO scope of designation.

Lens 04 · What it certifies
What it means: higher classes (MDR III, IVDR D) carry the strictest scrutiny — a window into how high-stakes this body's work runs.
| Framework | Class | Certs | Distribution |
|---|---|---|---|
| MDR | Class I | 9 | |
| Class IIa | 22 | ||
| Class IIb | 28 | ||
