EMA Submission Support for the EU

The European Medicines Agency (EMA) coordinates scientific assessment across the EU, with the European Commission granting the marketing authorisation. EvySaif provides EMA submission support, preparing the dossiers and regulatory strategy for the EU's procedures, whether you are pursuing a centralised marketing authorisation or authorising a clinical trial through the modern EU system.

The Pathway

Understanding the EU pathways

A marketing authorisation can be sought through the centralised procedure, which yields a single authorisation valid across the EU and EEA, or through national, mutual-recognition, and decentralised procedures for other cases. All are built on the CTD and eCTD structure with an EU-specific Module 1.

Choose the procedure

The centralised procedure gives a single authorisation valid across all EU and EEA countries, mandatory for certain product types and optional for others. National, mutual-recognition, and decentralised procedures cover the remaining cases.

Authorise the trial through CTIS

The Clinical Trials Regulation (EU) No 536/2014 governs trials end to end. Applications run through the Clinical Trials Information System, mandatory for new trials since January 2023 and for all ongoing trials since January 2025, assessed in a coordinated Part I led by a Reporting Member State and a national Part II.

Register to operate in the system

Sponsors need an EMA account and organization registration through OMS and SPOR, with suspected unexpected serious adverse reactions reported through EudraVigilance.

Respond and conclude

Assessment brings requests for information and questions from EMA and member states. Once the scientific assessment concludes positively, the European Commission grants the marketing authorisation.
