Summary/Abstract: Directive 2010/53/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 7 July 2010 on standards of quality and safety of human organs intended for transplantation sets out a common framework in the area of quality and safety of organs of human origin. Through this common framework, the aim of this Directive is to ensure a better organ exchange between the Member States and third countries, to provide better protection for organ donors and to indirectly prevent organ trafficking. It covers different aspects of organ transplantation – organ procurement, donation, characterization of organs and donors, transport of organs, and transplantation. It sets out the obligation of the Member States to designate competent authorities to implement this Directive, transplantation centres authorisation, and conditions of procurement and systems of traceability.
