EMDN Y12: Personal Mobility Devices

Complete hierarchy for EMDN group Y12 in category Y (Devices for Persons with Disabilities not Included in Other Categories): 37 terminal codes, EMDN v2026. Terminal codes are the ones accepted in a EUDAMED device record.

Registered classes, as of 8 Sep 2026. For each code with at least 20 registrations under a legislation, the chip shows how devices registered in EUDAMED under that code are classed, counted once per primary UDI-DI and kept separate for each legislation. It is not a determination. The class of a device comes from the MDR and IVDR classification rules for its intended purpose. MDD and IVDD classes are the directive classification and can differ from the class the same device would have under MDR or IVDR.

How Y12 is structured

37
terminal codes, selectable in a device record
7
branch headings, not selectable
28
name a specific device type
24%
fallback entries: Other and Accessories

The Personal Mobility Devices branch runs 3 levels deep. 7 entries below are branch headings that group other codes rather than naming a device, so a classification has to resolve all the way down to one of the 37 codes marked terminal.

7 terminal codes are “- Other” entries and 2 are “- Accessories” entries, 24% of the branch. An “- Other” code is the residual slot for devices its siblings do not name, so it is worth ruling out every specific sibling before settling on one.

The largest sub-branch is Y1203 (Walking Devices, One-Handed Operation), holding 8 of the 37 terminal codes.

Frequently asked questions

Which Y12 codes can be used in a EUDAMED device record?
37 of the 44 codes listed under Y12 (Personal Mobility Devices) are terminal and can be selected. The other 7 are branch headings that cannot.
How deep is the Y12 hierarchy?
The Y12 branch runs 3 levels below the group code. Its largest sub-branch is Y1203 (Walking Devices, One-Handed Operation), which holds 8 of the 37 terminal codes.
How many Y12 codes are catch-all entries?
7 terminal codes under Y12 are "- Other" entries and 2 are "- Accessories" entries, 24% of the branch. The remaining 28 name a specific device type.

Not sure which level to stop at, or which of two plausible codes to submit? The guide to choosing an EMDN code walks the decision level by level, with a worked example and the mistakes that get a EUDAMED registration rejected.
