UKRP Fee and MHRA Registration Fee 2026
Three costs apply when a manufacturer outside the UK appoints I3CGLOBAL as UK Responsible Person and registers devices with the MHRA: an annual UKRP fee, a one-time setup fee and the MHRA statutory fee of GBP 300 per GMDN Level 2 category per year. The tables below show the fee for every device class. Prices are in GBP; we invoice in USD, EUR or INR on request.

What Does the UKRP Fee Include?
Annual UKRP fee: from GBP 950 per year
Appointment of I3CGLOBAL UK as your UK Responsible Person under a signed agreement, use of our name and UK address on labels and IFU, custody of your technical documentation, MHRA correspondence, vigilance support and annual fee reminders. Paid once a year for as long as we represent you.
One-time setup fee: from GBP 200

Government fee
How the MHRA Registration Fee Works
The MHRA replaced its one-off GBP 261 application fee on 1 April 2026 with an annual fee of GBP 300 for each GMDN Level 2 category. The fee is based on the categories you hold on 31 March, invoiced for the fee year from 1 April, charged pro rata for registrations made during the year and paid in DORS. Because the number of categories sets the bill, accurate GMDN coding, which is included in our setup fee, keeps the annual MHRA fee as low as the rules allow.

FAQs
UKRP Fee: Frequently Asked Questions
Is the UKRP fee an annual charge?
Yes. The UKRP fee is paid once a year for as long as I3CGLOBAL acts as your UK Responsible Person. The setup fee is charged once, in the first year only, and the MHRA statutory fee of GBP 300 per GMDN Level 2 category is also annual.
Does the MHRA charge a registration fee separately?
Yes. The MHRA fee is a government fee paid through DORS and is separate from the UKRP service fee. Since 1 April 2026 it is GBP 300 per year for each GMDN Level 2 category, replacing the earlier one-off GBP 261 per application.
What is included in the UKRP fee?
Appointment of I3CGLOBAL UK as your UK Responsible Person under a signed agreement, the right to show our name and UK address on your labels and instructions for use, custody of your technical documentation, communication with the MHRA on your behalf, vigilance and corrective action support, and reminders for the annual MHRA fee.
Can one UKRP fee cover several devices?
Yes. One UK Responsible Person appointment covers all your devices. The UKRP fee is set by the highest device class in your portfolio, and the MHRA fee depends on how many GMDN Level 2 categories your devices fall into, not on the number of models.
Do CE-marked devices still pay the UKRP and MHRA fees?
Yes. CE marking is accepted in Great Britain, but every non-UK manufacturer must still appoint a UK Responsible Person and register each device in DORS, so both the UKRP fee and the MHRA fee apply.
Can I pay in USD, EUR or INR?
Yes. Our fees are set in GBP and we invoice in USD, EUR or INR at the exchange rate on the invoice date. Payment is accepted by bank transfer, PayPal, Apple Pay and debit or credit card.
