Executive Summary
The Czech transposition of the European Union's Medical Devices Directive could cause problems for industry. Draft legislation due to be submitted to the government in March or April is likely to contain a number of additional requirements to those already in place in the European Economic Area. The government decree that came into effect on October 1 has already introduced some measures that will have a negative effect on importers of medical devices into the Czech Republic.
