About EU GMP Annex 11

EU GMP Annex 11 covers computerised systems used in pharmaceutical and medical-product manufacturing within the European Union. It is part of EudraLex Volume 4 and was last revised in June 2011. Annex 11 applies a risk-based approach, requires comprehensive validation aligned with GAMP 5, mandates data integrity controls, supports 21 CFR Part 11 equivalence for electronic signatures, and addresses suppliers, business continuity and incident management. It is widely recognised globally through PIC/S adoption.
