Creating a Medical Device UDI at IFA (Unique Device Identifier)

Dr. Oliver Eidel · IEC 62304: Medical Device Software Development · Published December 12, 2025
IFA is another UDI provider besides GS1. While you only have select one (no need to bother with both!), we've still gone through the process of getting a UDI with IFA, too, so you can pick and choose whatever provider you prefer.

I’m a medical doctor, software engineer and regulatory dude. I’m also the founder of OpenRegulatory.

Through OpenRegulatory, I’ve helped 100+ companies with their medical device compliance. While it’s also my job that we stay profitable, I try to dedicate a lot of my time towards writing free content like our articles and templates. Maybe that will make consulting unnecessary some day? :)

If you’re still lost and have further questions, reach out any time!
