MDR Translation Compliance Checklist
Planning Your MDR Translation Compliance
The EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR) requires manufacturers to provide documentation in the official language of each member state where their device is sold. For many companies, this means translating technical documentation, Instructions for Use (IFUs), labelling, and marketing materials into multiple European languages – all while maintaining consistency and regulatory compliance.
Our free MDR translation compliance checklist helps you plan and track this process across a 12-month timeline. Based on our 25 years of experience supporting medical device manufacturers with MDR translation requirements, we’ve broken the journey into four manageable phases: Assessment, Preparation, Implementation, and Finalisation.
Use the interactive checklist below to:
- Track your progress through each phase of MDR translation planning
- Save your checklist and return to it at any time

Whether you’re approaching MDR translation for the first time or updating existing documentation to meet the regulation’s stricter requirements, this tool will help you stay organised and on track.
