Manufacturers

This section covers how to manage Manufacturers in TPD PRO — the entities responsible for producing the products being notified.

What is a Manufacturer?

A Manufacturer in TPD PRO represents the legal entity that physically produces the product being submitted. This may be the same as the Submitter or a separate third-party company. Each product submission must be linked to a specific Manufacturer for regulatory accuracy and traceability.

Why Manufacturers Are Important

  • Required by EU-CEG for every product notification

  • Helps distinguish between companies that submit and those that produce

  • Allows users to manage products from multiple production facilities or white-label partners

  • Supports compliance documentation and identity verification for authorities

Default Manufacturer

When registering a new account in TPD PRO, a default Manufacturer is automatically created based on the company data entered during registration (if applicable). You can edit or replace this entry at any time.

Add a Manufacturer

To create additional manufacturers:

  1. Go to Manufacturers in the left-hand menu

  2. Click “Create”

  3. Fill in the required fields:

    • Name — Legal name of the manufacturing company

    • Address — Registered address of the manufacturer

    • Country — Country of incorporation

    • Email and Phone (mandatory)

    • Production Sites (mandatory) — Add physical addresses where production takes place

  4. Click “Save”

✅ You can manage multiple manufacturers and select the appropriate one when creating each submission.

Reusing Manufacturers

  • Once added, a Manufacturer can be reused in multiple product submissions

  • You can assign a different Manufacturer per submission

  • Editing a Manufacturer's info does not affect existing submissions unless updated manually
