Core business

Daily Life

The Swiss AR Issue Tracker provides an easy way to communicate and track customer complaints, business-related tasks or other relevant actions between the legal manufacturer and Swiss AR Services AG as the authorized representative.

MDR / IVDR

Regulation

We enable access to the Swiss market for medical devices. Switzerland has aligned its Medical Devices Ordinance (MepV) with the MDR of the European Union (Regulation (EU)
No. 2017/745) and will enter into force on May 26, 2021. According to the new version of the MepV, non-Swiss manufacturers need a Swiss-based Swiss-Rep (Swiss-Rep / CH-Rep stands for "Swiss Authorised Representative") to continue selling their CE-marked medical devices in Switzerland. Since the Mutual Recognition Agreement (MRA) between Switzerland and the European Union (incl. EU MDR) has not been updated, medical device manufacturers outside Switzerland must authorize a Swiss-Rep.

Due to the failed negotiations on a new framework agreement between the EU and Switzerland, conformity assessment of medical devices will no longer be mutually recognised since the MDR comes into force (26.05.2021). 

In order to continue to market medical devices in Switzerland, all MDD/MDR devices, as well as Class I, II & III treatment units, must be registered by 31 July 2022.

The following deadlines apply to in vitro diagnostic products:
(IVDD/IVDR)

  • Until 31 Mar 2023 - Class D
  • Until 31 Mar 2023 - Classes C and B
  • Until 31 Jul 2023 - Class A

No.
We only check that the EU declaration of conformity and the technical documentation have been drawn up and that the manufacturer has carried out an appropriate conformity procedure, if applicable.

We will be happy to recommend an appropriate contact for this purpose. Please contact us for this purpose using the contact form.

We offer the service as CH-REP for medical devices as well as for IVD products.
