Companies' name and address changes
If your company changes name or address, be aware that the company's authorisations must be renewed by the Danish Medicines Agency.
An authorisation granted by the Danish Medicines Agency may in many cases be linked to
- the registered address of your company and
- the registered name of your company.
Your company must therefore apply for authorisation under the new address or the company name.
Your company must apply for an authorisation renewal for each license granted by the Danish Medicines Agency.
In other words, your company cannot submit a general notification concerning the change of address or company name.
