IVDR Notified Bodies (2026)

19 Notified Bodies hold a designation under IVDR 2017/746 (NANDO, 12 October 2026), against 52 under MDR. With so few bodies, capacity for Class B, C and D devices is tight: shortlist early and confirm each body’s IVDR codes.

Which IVDs need a Notified Body?

Under IVDR, Class B, C and D devices need a Notified Body, and so do sterile Class A devices (for the sterility aspects only). For Class D devices the body also involves an EU reference laboratory where one is designated, and companion diagnostics require a consultation with a medicines authority.

How many IVDR Notified Bodies are there?

19 in NANDO on 12 October 2026. 18 of them are also designated under MDR.

Can an MDR Notified Body certify IVDs?

Only if it also holds an IVDR designation. MDR and IVDR designations are separate, and each covers specific codes.

How do I check whether a body covers my IVD?

Open the body in NANDO, select Regulation (EU) 2017/746 and compare its IVDR codes with your device. Then ask the body in writing whether it accepts new applications for that device type.
