About this regulation

Guideline for Classification of Medical Devices Other than IVD Medical Devices (EFDA/GDL/041)

The classification guideline for devices other than IVDs: the four risk classes and the rules that assign a device to one. Version 002, approved 20.06.2026, effective 30.06.2026; version 001 was first issued in 2021. Two things about the copy are worth recording because they are the source's and are not repaired: the file name says "V1" while the document itself is Version 002 (the file name is the publisher's), and the file name also spells the Authority "EEDA" against the `EFDA` the document uses throughout. Its body headings are the one set a generic heading scan could not see at all, which is why this market's extracts are TOC-driven.

EFDA/GDL/041 Version No: 002 is the official identifier EFDA uses for this instrument. Always confirm the current consolidated text and transition provisions with the official source before filing.
