NaviReg is our new navigator in the complex landscape of EU and national regulations! 

It offers a practical and intuitive solution for navigating and searching through regulations, guidelines, and related documents. The platform is being developed to make it easier for all of us to find our way through legislative requirements that often cross-reference one another. We’ve linked these references together and clearly structured the regulations into chapters, subchapters, articles… 

We are continuously adding new regulations to NaviReg and enriching them with links. Our current focus is on covering legislation in the areas of medicinal products, medical devices, and cosmetics. All texts are sourced from official publications (currently EMA, EUR-Lex, SUKL) and are presented without any modifications. 

In phase one, we are going to navigate you through the following regulations:
