# Enable Device Agencies for EU Countries

Veeva Safety supports linking a secondary, device-specific agency to a _Country_. New _Product Registrations_ for that country automatically inherit the agency. This ensures that for medical devices registered in a specific country, Vault correctly runs device agency reporting rules (EUDAMED in the EU for example) rather than defaulting to medicinal product logic.

Once you have configured this feature, see <a href="/en/lr/01213/#config-device-agencies">Manage Organizations</a> and <a href="/en/lr/01215/#device-agency">Manage Products</a> for more information.
