MRA Status Updates
Overviewβ
The CHβEU MRA Chapter 4 operational status is a critical variable for every Swiss market access strategy for CE-marked devices. This page tracks MRA status developments.
Always verify current MRA status
The MRA status can change. Verify the current operational status with Swissmedic or SECO before making market access decisions.
Backgroundβ
See MRA with EU β Current Status for full background on what the MRA covers and its regulatory significance.
Where to Monitor MRA Statusβ
- SECO (State Secretariat for Economic Affairs): seco.admin.ch β MRA
- Swissmedic: swissmedic.ch β market access
- European Commission: ec.europa.eu β CH MRA
Practical Checklist β Regardless of MRA Statusβ
These obligations always apply:
- CH REP appointed (if not established in Switzerland)
- DAPI notification/registration completed
- Swiss labelling (DE/FR/IT) in place
- Vigilance reporting processes to Swissmedic eVigilance established
- FSCA notification process to Swissmedic established
What changes with MRA status: whether a simplified DAPI notification suffices (MRA operational) or full DAPI registration is required (MRA not fully operational).
