| Authorised representative | 13 | 15% | Represents a foreign manufacturer towards the regulator (EU authorised representative and similar). |
| Registration holder | 18 | 21% | Holds device licences or registrations in its own name (Health Canada MDALL licence holder). |

Who holds the registration in France
In the EU and EEA the manufacturer, or its EU authorised representative for manufacturers based outside the EU, registers in EUDAMED and holds the CE marking file. Importers and distributors register separately as economic operators and never own the registration, which is why EU channel changes are easier than elsewhere.
This is the general rule, not legal advice. The registration clause in the first distributor contract decides who controls the market later. The Next 10 Markets report covers who holds the registration in each of your ten markets.
