It has been brought to our attention that the MHRA have started to contact registrants via email regarding ‘Registration Renewal Reminder’
It is a legal requirement to inform the MHRA of any changes to your registration per section 7A (general medical devices), section 33A (in vitro diagnostic medical devices) and section 21A (active implantable medical devices) of the Medical Devices Regulations (2002) 618 (as amended) concerning registration of persons placing medical devices on the market.
The MHRA have implemented a renew registration process as a reminder to review your registration and confirm that it is up to date. The first reminder date is 1 year after account creation and then at least every 2 years. For accounts that were created before 01 January 2021 the first review and renewal reminder date has been set for 01 January 2022. You will receive automated email reminders 3, 2 and 1 month before your renewal date – you can review and submit the Renew registration application from 3 months before the renewal date. There is no fee for this application.
Please note that if you do not review your registration and submit the Renew registration application your account will be suspended. Suspended accounts are removed from the Public Access Registration Database (PARD) and you will not be able to add new devices until you have reviewed your registration and submitted the renewal application.
Please follow the Renew Registration instructions in the Account Management Reference Guide and watch the Renew Registration video tutorial.
