Labeling Instruments with calibration information
Assign topic to the user
In ISO 13485:2016, in requirement 7.6 Control of monitoring and measuring equipment in section c) is statted that measuring equipment must have identification in order to determine its calibration status. Usually, it is performed by a sticker stating at least when the next calibration needs to be done.
For more information regarding calibration requirements, please see the following article:

Thank you for getting back to me so quickly and with the specific verbiage. One more request if it's not too much to ask, please? That question was specific for calibrating instruments. Is there any requirement where you have to label an asset with its previous preventive maintenance and it's next PM coming due?
As far as I know, this requirement is from ISO/IEC 17025:2005(en) General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories.
Since I am not the expert for this standard, for more information please see the following article:
