Make use of the SME facilities in Article 62

Apply for priority access to the AI regulatory sandbox, use the national communication channel for questions about implementation, sign up for the standardisation process, and on a conformity assessment under Article 43 ask how the fee reduction has been applied.

What this object links to

Every relation appears below as a path: from the source with its locator, through the conditions and exceptions of the object carrying the relation, to the consequence. A locator belongs to a statement in the data and not to a relation, so the source is the source anchor of the carrying object.

    • Condition | allThe priority access in paragraph 1, point (a), applies to SMEs, including start-ups, having a registered office or a branch in the Union, and only to the extent that they fulfil the eligibility conditions and selection criteria. The reduction of fees in paragraph 2 attaches to conformity assessments under Article 43 and to the capacity of an SME provider, including start-ups. Article 62 sits in Chapter VI, which is named in none of the three exceptions in the third paragraph of Article 113; the general date of application in the second paragraph therefore governs, 2 August 2026.
    • ExceptionParagraph 1, point (a), expressly states that the priority access shall not preclude other SMEs, including start-ups, other than those referred to in that paragraph from access to the AI regulatory sandbox, provided that they also fulfil the eligibility conditions and selection criteria. Priority is therefore an order of precedence and not an exclusive right, and it releases nobody from the eligibility conditions and selection criteria.

    As long as this exception is not ruled out, the outcome stays conditional and you have to establish it yourself.

    Relation recorded on: Article 62: measures for providers and deployers that are SMEs or start-ups
