Decentralised recognition procedure 2015

Updated 24 February 2016

Under the decentralised procedure (DCP), it is possible to apply for authorisation in several EU (EEA) countries simultaneously. Unlike the mutual recognition procedure, this procedure does not require authorisation in an EU (EEA) country beforehand. The reference member state (RMS) is responsible for completion of the decentralised procedure and the scientific assessment of the application.

Status for 2015 up to and including 4th quarter 

Denmark has initiated 101 human DCP procedures, which is 8 % of all assigned human DCP procedures in 2015. Denmark has not initiated veterinary DCP procedures in 2015.
