    The guidance published last fall said the new form becomes mandatory in January: https://ec.europa.eu/docsroom/documents/36292

    It's here:  https://ec.europa.eu/docsroom/documents/37348

    Although I see the main guidance page still has the older version.​

    You can find the relevant guideline and reports in MEDDEV 2.12/1.

    Hope that helps

    The forms that should be used as of January 2020 can be found here:

    https://ec.europa.eu/growth/sectors/medical-devices/current-directives/guidance_en

    See section 2.12:

    New MIR form* - as from January 2020

    New manufacturer incident report(PDF form)
    New manufacturer incident report for importing XML file* with Adobe Professional
    The published MIR form is password-protected so it may be necessary to unlock it for specific purposes (e.g. translating the form, implementing it into in-house IT systems).
    You can request the password for specific authorised uses, which are subject to terms and conditions.
    New manufacturer incident report XSD file and XSL files (for implementation in manufacturer' databases)
    New manufacturer incident report help text
    Changelog file
    *If you're a manufacturer and have already adapted your IT system to version 7.1, you may use this version until the end of March 2020.
