Article 6(1): the product route to high risk

An AI system counts as high risk where it is intended to be used as a safety component of a product covered by the Union harmonisation legislation listed in Annex I, or is itself such a product, and that product is required to undergo a third-party conformity assessment. This route does not run through Annex III but through the product legislation that already applies to the product. For Section A products the requirements of Chapter III, Section 2, form part of the sectoral assessment under Article 43(3); for Section B products Article 2(2) limits the operation of this Regulation to a short list of provisions.
