As there are not enough organs available, organ distribution is coordinated by a central, independent organisation based on a waiting list of recipient patients. This Europe-wide, central organisation for the distribution of donor organs is Eurotranplant, headquartered in Leiden (Netherlands). Currently, 8 countries (Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Germany, Austria, Slovenia, Hungary and Croatia) are connected to Eurotransplant.
As soon as you have been recognised by Eurotransplant as a candidate for a transplant after submitting your data, you will be placed on the waiting list and notified by us by telephone.
