A public-evidence tracker for MDR notified-body intake. Only current, attributable statements are treated as verified; device-specific availability still requires direct confirmation.

Source: European Commission 20th NB Survey, published 2 July 2026 (data as of 28 February 2026). Application and certificate totals are not one-to-one, so their difference must not be presented as a pending backlog or the ratio as a certification success rate. The reported 13–18 month figure is an average at responding-NB level from written agreement to certificate issuance.
BSI's July 2026 publication states no capacity restrictions and acceptance of MDR and IVDR applications for all device types. This update did not verify comparable current public intake statements for the other named NBs. That does not mean they are closed: ask each NB to confirm availability for the exact device, procedure, technologies and sites.
The Commission's 20th survey reports that 51% of responding NBs averaged 13–18 months and 31% averaged 19–24 months from written agreement to new MDR certificate issuance. These are NB-level averages, not per-class medians or device-specific commitments. BSI separately publishes current stage lead times, including earliest audit scheduling after written agreement.
There is no authoritative EU ranking of the fastest NB for Class IIa. First filter the live NANDO list by the applicable device and conformity-assessment codes, then compare complete-application requirements, earliest contract and audit dates, product-review estimate, permitted interruptions and total cost.
Switching is possible, but the incoming NB must perform sufficient assessment to support its own decision. Plan withdrawal, certificate and surveillance implications, information transfer and new contracting with both NBs. IR 2026/977 applies from 25 February 2027, but its stage timelines have specific start points and permitted interruptions; they do not guarantee an overall completion date.
ECP routes a structured device description — risk class, applicable MDR/IVDR designation codes, technologies, sites, target markets and documentation status — to potential providers. The notified body remains responsible for confirming designation scope, accepting the application and issuing its own quotation and timeline.

Describe the device once and receive responses from potential providers. Confirm NANDO scope, current intake, quotation assumptions and timelines directly with the notified body before lodging an application.
