Who it affects

Medical device manufacturers and labelers selling in the US market — from Class I devices to implantables.

What it requires

A Unique Device Identifier must appear on every device label in both human-readable and AIDC format — QR codes are an accepted carrier. The UDI-DI identifies the device model; the UDI-PI identifies the specific production unit or batch. All UDIs must link to a record in the FDA's GUDID database.

How QRStandard helps

Bulk-generate QR codes encoding UDI data for each device model and production batch. Manage label versions with a full audit trail per serial number. Export records for FDA inspection or notified body review.

What you get

The infrastructure behind every compliant QR code

PrintOnce Redirect

Print once. Update forever.

The QR code is affixed to the product at the factory. The URL behind it is managed from your dashboard. Your documentation server changes — the code on the product does not.

Document Hosting

Upload your document. No server needed.

Attach a PDF manual, safety datasheet, or certificate directly to the QR code. No external hosting required — your document is stored in the EU and served instantly on scan.

Audit Trail

Every change logged for inspection.

Every destination change is recorded: timestamp, previous URL, new URL, and the user who made it. Export as CSV for regulatory inspection documentation in seconds. Immutable by design.

Bulk Generation

Thousands of codes. One CSV upload.

Upload serial numbers and destination URLs. Download a ZIP of print-ready QR codes. No per-scan fees — ever. No infrastructure to maintain on your side.
