    Hi, 

    Who is responsible for  re-registrations due to legal manufacturer change? Receiving  company or delivering?

    It should be the receiving company as they will now be considered the Legal Manufacturer.  The question is a bit broad, so I would say it is the receiving company; if you are referring to information in the FURLS database then both companies would have to update their information.  Just assure that you have all the information documented internally.

    ​Yes this question is too general.
    1. What market  we are talking about - I guess US.
    2. Who did initial registration?
    In my opinion always legal manufacturer is responsible for the products placed on the market. If you sell on other markets, procedure can be more complicated.
    I hope that will help :)

    You should review the contract and agreement of manufacturer change thoroughly where legal language by the lawyers specify the responsibility and scope of the future events that will be carried out by receiving or delivering entity.

    If you are referring to international registrations and the impact on existing device approvals as a result of a merger or acquisition, then the legal manufacturer is responsible. In my experience, this will impact many international countries as new labeling, new certificates etc will have to be submitted by the new legal mfr as part of the re-registration, in addition to revised contracts/agreements etc that others have already indicated.
