In practice

Registration has been mandatory since 28 May 2026. The manufacturer first obtains a single registration number (SRN), then registers each device with its Basic UDI-DI. Economic operator data must be updated within one week (Article 31(4)), the UDI database within 30 days for a change not requiring a new UDI-DI (Annex VI, Part C, Section 5.10), and accuracy confirmed no later than one year after registration and every two years thereafter (Article 31(5)).
