The purpose of this Work Item is to promote a globally harmonized approach to the application of a UDI system, supporting the principles laid down in the general IMDRF UDI Guidance Document (IMDRF/WG/N7Final:2013). The Work Item is, therefore, intended to contribute to the achievement of the perceived benefits of UDI for regulators and stakeholders implementing UDI around the globe
The working group will develop an IMDRF Technical Document that will provide an Application Guide for UDI providing guidance (definition, instruction, context, etc.) needed for a globally harmonized approach to the application of a UDI system.
