CE Mark Consultants for Medical Device and IVD Companies
Before you can sell a medical device or IVD within Europe, you must place
a CE Mark on your product. The CE Mark is not a quality certification nor is
it intended for consumers. It is used by the European Competent Authorities
(National Ministries of Health) as a way to quickly determine whether your
product has met all of the requirements of the Medical Device Directive
93/42/EEC, In Vitro Diagnostic Directive 98/79/EC or the Active Implantable
Medical Device Directive 90/385/EEC.

The Medical Device Directive states that companies must:
- Compile a Technical File with evidence of compliance to the Medical Device Directive (or the IVD/AIMD Directives).
- Receive a CE Mark certificate from a Notified Body if medium or high risk device.
- Appoint an Authorized Representative if you have no physical location in Europe.
- Register their medical devices with the Competent Authorities .
Only after these CE compliance requirements are satisfied are allowed to place the CE Mark on your device.
