- To export medical devices outside the UK, you may need to order a Certificate of Free Sale (CFS)
- The CFS can only be ordered for medical devices that have been registered with the MHRA
- The MHRA issues CFS as a service to UK exporters for medical devices only
- The CFS does not endorse the product or verify compliance with export requirements
- Different CFS are issued based on the manufacturer’s location and conformity mark
- The CFS is issued as a PDF document with an electronic signature
- The Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office will not apostille PDF documents directly
- Apply for an account with the MHRA to order a CFS for your medical devices.
