UKALIA Ltd

EU Authorised Representative services for medical device and IVD manufacturers — registered in Belfast, Northern Ireland.

What UKALIA does

EU Authorised Representative (EC-REP)

UKALIA Ltd acts as EU Authorised Representative for medical device and in vitro diagnostic manufacturers based outside the European Union.

Under EU MDR (2017/745) and IVDR (2017/746), any manufacturer outside the EU who places CE-marked products on EU markets must appoint an Authorised Representative. The AR is named on device labelling, registered with the relevant competent authority, and carries defined legal obligations under EU law.

UKALIA fulfils this role — providing a properly registered, legally accountable AR for manufacturers entering or currently operating in EU markets.

The Belfast Advantage

Why Northern Ireland matters for your EU appointment

UKALIA Ltd is registered in Belfast, Northern Ireland. This is not simply a geographic detail — it is a regulatory positioning with specific practical value.

Under the Northern Ireland Protocol (Windsor Framework), Northern Ireland maintains alignment with EU medical device regulations while remaining part of the United Kingdom.

This means:

For non-EU manufacturers — particularly those based in the US, Japan, Australia, and Asia — this structure provides a single, properly-registered European foothold covering both the EU-27 and the unique NI market position.
