Overview of the registration and approval procedures for medicinal products (CP, DCP, MRP, NP)

Marketing authorisation for medicinal products can be obtained in the EU either by the centralised procedure or by a non-centralised procedure:

The centralised procedure for medicinal products (CP)

enables the applicant to obtain marketing authorisation for a medicinal product in the European Economic Area (EU members, Iceland and Norway) with a single application. All marketing authorisation applications and their scientific evaluation are coordinated by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) in London.

The decentralised procedure (DCP) and
the mutual recognition procedure (MRP)

In these procedures, marketing authorisations for medicinal products are applied for in several EU Member States, with one country acting as the Reference Member State (RMS) for the marketing authorisation concerned. If the application is successful, the medicinal product is authorised for marketing in the RMS and the other countries involved, known as the Concerned Member States (CMS).

Separate national procedures (NP) are confined exclusively to medicinal products that are to be authorised by the national regulatory authorities for medicinal products, such as MHRA, BfArM, ANSM, DKMA, HALMED, AFMPS, AIFA, ZVA, ŠÚKL, etc., and marketed in one European Member State (MS) only.
