Norwegian manufacturers and authorised representatives are obliged to register their Medical device in the Norwegian Register for Medical Devices.

Registration should be performed at the start time of the placing on the marked of the medical device. A declaration of conformity should therefore be issued before registration takes place. 

Manufacturers and authorised representatives localised in other Member States cannot register in the Norwegian Register for Medical Devices. Distributors and importers are not obligated to register. ​
