Class I UDI Inventory Exception: What You Need to Know about FDA Compliance
In 2013, the FDA granted a UDI exception for 3 years after the corresponding Compliance Date for finished medical devices manufactured and labeled without Unique Device Identification (UDI) as of the Compliance Date, commonly referred to as the 3-Year Inventory UDI Exception or the ‘Final Rule.’ Such devices meeting the criteria could be commercially distributed for 3 years after the corresponding Compliance Date without complying with UDI requirements. At the end of the 3-year period, any undistributed inventory would need to be reprocessed to comply with current UDI requirements, i.e., UDI Label and GUDID reporting.
