Décret n o 2014-1525 du 17 décembre 2014 relatif à la reconnaissance des prescriptions de dispositifs médicaux établies dans un autre Etat membre de l’Union européenne

This decree establishes the rules for France to recognize medical device requirements and certifications issued by other European Union member states. It ensures that medical products approved in one EU country can be more easily accessed and used in France, promoting the free movement of goods. This primarily affects medical device manufacturers, healthcare providers, and regulatory bodies. It simplifies the administrative process for importing medical equipment from other EU states into the French market.
