| Ordinul nr. Rg04-264 din 08.09.2026 | Notification and Registration of CE-Marked Medical Devices in the State Register — Administrative Procedure and User Instruction Ordinul Agenției Medicamentului și Dispozitivelor Medicale nr. Rg04-264 din 08.09.2026, signed by the Director on 8 September 2026 and in force from signature. It approves, under art. 4 alin. (2) lit. b) and e), art. 7 and art. 17 alin. (1) of Legea nr. 102/2017 cu privire la dispozitivele medicale and the Administrative Code, (1.1) the administrative procedure for the notification and registration of CE-marked medical devices in the State Register of Medical Devices (Annex No. 1) and (1.2) the user instruction for the electronic service "Cabinetul personal al reprezentantului autorizat" (Annex No. 2); and it repeals three earlier orders that governed the same ground (nr. A07.PS-01.Rg04-201 of 13.10.2017, nr. Rg04-000123 of 20.05.2024 and nr. Rg04-000367 of 06.12.2024). Annex No. 1 is the substantive instrument: Chapters I–VI (§1–§51) cover the general provisions and the RSDM, access to the personal cabinet, registration of the manufacturer, the applicant's preliminary obligations, notification and registration of the device in five sections (filing of the dossier; examination and registration; rejection and appeal; updating and erasure of RSDM data; the applicant's liability) and the final provisions; there follow the annex to the Procedure — the minimum requirements for the content of the agreement between the manufacturer and the authorised representative (general provisions, the registration and conformity-assessment procedure, the information the manufacturer must provide, the safeguard clause, vigilance, delegated devices, enforcement measures) — and the form annexed to those minimum requirements. Annex No. 2 is operational only, and carries its own annexes 1–3, the forms used in the electronic service. The order's own first pages are an OCR text layer with broken diacritics ("Se aprob6", "Instrucliunea", "Agenliei", "Ei" for "și"); the corpus preserves that text layer as the source states it rather than repairing it, while Annex No. 1 onward is clean. | Registration | 8 September 2026 | Official |
Changes after registration in Moldova
Source-linked rules for common changes to a registered medical device. Read the scope and conditions with each rule; unverified details are listed separately.
Does changing a device brand name or logo require an update?
A change to the registered brand name and a change to logo artwork can follow different rules. The legal manufacturer, device design and intended purpose remain the same.
A source-verified answer for this specific scenario is not yet published.
How do I update a manufacturer's name without changing the legal entity?
The same legal manufacturer changes its name, potentially alongside the device brand. A transfer to another legal entity is a separate question; permission to combine filings needs its own evidence.
A source-verified answer for this specific scenario is not yet published.
What changes when the manufacturer's office address changes?
An office address change for the same legal entity, potentially alongside name and brand changes. This does not cover moving a factory or manufacturing site, and a combined filing cannot be assumed.
A source-verified answer for this specific scenario is not yet published.
Does a catalogue or reference code change affect registration or UDI?
Check which identifier actually changes. A commercial catalogue, REF or order code is not automatically a device model, registered identifier, GTIN or UDI-DI. Rules for one identifier do not establish the route for another.
A source-verified answer for this specific scenario is not yet published.
Can a registration transfer to a different legal entity?
A real change of legal manufacturer, registration holder or owner. This differs from renaming the same entity; a change of local representative or importer alone does not establish a registration transfer route. Where other changes occur with the transfer, the exact combination and sequence need separate evidence.
A source-verified answer for this specific scenario is not yet published.
Can several changes be filed together?
Changes to brand, manufacturer name, office address and reference codes may occur together, including with a real transfer to another legal manufacturer, registration holder or owner. Assess transfer with each single change, and transfer with brand plus reference, manufacturer name plus reference, or office address plus reference changes: seven transfer combinations in total. Evidence must establish the exact combination and the order of filings and approvals. These combinations and their sequence are not all verified by the rules below; a rule for one change does not prove that a single application, fee or review period covers the combination.
A source-verified answer for this specific scenario is not yet published.
