How does the HPRA process registration applications?
We validate Eudamed registration applications for economic operators established in Ireland and their non-EU manufacturers. Once validated, you will receive a single registration number (SRN) from Eudamed.
Any registrations validated on Eudamed will also be registered nationally.
Complete registration applications, national and Eudamed, will be processed within 10 working days.
How much does it cost to register?
There is an annual maintenance fee for all registered economic operators. This is based on the registration information provided to us both directly and via EUDAMED so it is important to keep information up to date. Invoices are sent to economic operators in quarter 2 of each year.
An additional administration fee must be paid by any entities that register directly with the HPRA (i.e. not via EUDAMED). This fee must be received before registration is confirmed.
Please refer to section 9 of our fee application form for human products below to see relevant fee codes and payment instructions. Additional resources relating to fees are also provided below.
