GS1 has been designated by the European Commission as the issuing entity for Unique Device Identifiers (UDIs). GS1 global standards meet the EU Commission’s criteria for the issuance of #UDIs, supporting the EU regulators in ensuring a successful implementation of the UDI system as defined by the EU Medical Device Regulation and In-Vitro Diagnostics Medical Devices Regulation (EU Regulations), and enabling manufacturers to comply with these requirements.
In the pharmaceutical sector, traceability means following each medicine from its production to the patient to ensure its quality and integrity. Automatic identification techniques such as barcodes are increasingly being used to ensure this traceability and to prevent the counterfeiting of medicines.
The aim of the FMD regulation is to do everything possible to establish a system of unique identification, on the basis of which each medicine can be traced from production to the patient.

GS1 is working to achieve fully accurate, real-time visibility throughout the supply chain, from source to consumer, no matter what the mode of transport.
