Person Responsible for Regulatory Compliance (PRRC) for medical device and IVD companies

Medical Device Regulation MDR (EU) 2017/745 and In Vitro Diagnostic Medical Device Regulation IVDR (EU) 2017/746 state that every medical device manufacturer whose products are on the EU market is required to have at its disposal a Person Responsible for the Regulatory Compliance (PRRC).

Having a PRRC is a must. If you do not have one, no European Notified Body will ever certify you. But even if the certification is not needed, meaning that your products are non-sterile class I medical devices that are not reusable surgical instruments and are not intended for measuring, you must have the PRRC.


In addition, it is the responsibility of the EU Authorized Representative (if you need one) to ensure that you have the PRRC. The name of the PRRC is communicated to the European Union authorities by means of the EUDAMED registration. If Competent Authorities need to contact a medical device manufacturer, they will foremost turn to PRRC.

Does the PRRC have to be an employee of the company?

The responsible person may be appointed from among the employees of the company. However, small medical device companies may also engage a third party to provide the PRRC functions.
