- Condition | allApplies to the provider of a general-purpose AI model as soon as that model meets the condition in Article 51(1), point (a): high impact capabilities, which under Article 51(2) are presumed where the cumulative amount of computation used for its training, measured in floating point operations, is greater than 10^25. The two-week period runs from the moment that requirement is met or it becomes known that it will be met. The second route to systemic risk, a Commission designation under Article 51(1), point (b), or Article 52(4), is not covered here: Article 52(1) refers only to point (a).
- ExceptionFor general-purpose AI models placed on the market before 2 August 2025, Article 111(3) provides that the provider shall take the necessary steps to comply with the obligations of this Regulation by 2 August 2027. For those models the governing date is therefore 2 August 2027 and not the two-week period.
As long as this exception is not ruled out, the outcome stays conditional and you have to establish it yourself.

- Condition | allApplies where the model qualifies as a general-purpose AI model within the meaning of Article 3(63), its provider is established in a third country, and that model is placed on the Union market. The appointment is made by written mandate within the meaning of Article 3(5), which is not only given but also accepted, and it is made before the model is placed on the market. The moment at which the latter occurs is fixed less sharply for a model than for a system; see the editorial interpretation.
- Condition | any ofFor models placed on the market from 2 August 2025, the appointment duty applies from that moment. Providers of models placed on the market before 2 August 2025 shall, under Article 111(3), take the necessary steps to comply with the obligations of the Regulation by 2 August 2027.
- ExceptionParagraph 6 excludes the obligation for providers of AI models released under a free and open-source licence that allows access, usage, modification and distribution, and whose parameters, including the weights, the information on the model architecture and the information on model usage, are made publicly available. That exception falls away as soon as the model presents a systemic risk. Whether a given release qualifies is a factual test that has not been settled anywhere; we read it narrowly, so a partially public release does not qualify.
As long as this exception is not ruled out, the outcome stays conditional and you have to establish it yourself.

- Condition | any ofArises for other stakeholders: paragraph 3 names civil society organisations, industry, academia and other relevant stakeholders, such as downstream providers and independent experts, that may support the process.
- ExceptionParagraph 7 provides that for providers of general-purpose AI models not presenting systemic risks this adherence may be limited to the obligations provided for in Article 53, unless they declare explicitly their interest to join the full code. A provider without a systemic-risk model therefore does not have to sign up to the systemic-risk part in order to rely on the code.
- ExceptionArticle 56 does not impose a separate obligation on the provider. Paragraphs 3 and 7 speak of inviting, not of requiring, and the obligations themselves remain those of Articles 53 and 55. Not signing is therefore not an infringement of Article 56.

- 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.

- Condition | allApplies to providers of AI systems that fall under the competence of the AI Office pursuant to Article 75(1) and that are classified as high-risk. The replaced paragraph 1 carries two independent routes, and the four carve-outs at (i) to (iv) sit inside point (a) alone. Along point (a) Annex I systems fall outside the competence, as do point 2 of Annex III and point 8 as regards the administration of justice; point 8(b), on influencing elections and referenda, is not carved out. Point (b) is a route of its own: a system that constitutes, or is integrated into, a designated very large online platform or very large online search engine falls under the competence of the AI Office even where one of the carve-outs in point (a) applies. Anyone testing point (a) alone places such a system outside this obligation wrongly. Those duties start to apply when Chapter III, Sections 1 to 3, becomes applicable, and that date depends on the route: 2 December 2027 for the route of Article 6(2) and Annex III, and 2 August 2028 for the route of Article 6(1) and Annex I, which point (b) can bring into view. The deadline_at field carries the earlier of the two.

- Condition | any ofApplies to AI systems based on a general-purpose AI model where the model and the system are developed by the same provider or by providers forming part of the same undertaking, and to AI systems that constitute or are integrated into a very large online platform or very large online search engine designated in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2022/2065. The exclusive competence applies to the providers of those systems, and to deployers only where they are also the provider or form part of the same undertaking as the provider.
- Condition | allThe allocation of competence itself operates from 2 August 2026, because Article 75 sits in Chapter IX. It covers the obligations that apply at that moment, such as the prohibition in Article 5, the transparency duties of Article 50 and the obligations for general-purpose AI models. The two literal duties the amending regulation places on the provider, the reporting route of paragraph 1a and the fees of paragraph 1e, attach to high-risk status and therefore follow 2 December 2027; they sit in the separate object article-75-ai-office-high-risk-duties.
- ExceptionParagraph 1, point (a) carves four groups out of the exclusive competence of the AI Office: AI systems related to products covered by the Union harmonisation legislation listed in Annex I, systems referred to in point 2 of Annex III, systems provided by law enforcement authorities, border management authorities and financial institutions insofar as they fall under Article 74(6), and systems referred to in point 8 of Annex III as regards the administration of justice. Who is competent instead differs per group and is not always "the market surveillance authority": for financial institutions Article 74(6) points to the national authority responsible for their financial supervision, and for law enforcement, border management and the administration of justice Article 74(8) has the Member State designate either the data protection supervisory authority or another authority under the same conditions. Which body that is per Member State does not follow from the Regulation.

- Condition | allParagraph 1 expressly concerns AI systems other than high-risk AI systems, and the voluntary application to them of some or all of the requirements set out in Chapter III, Section 2. Paragraph 2 is wider and concerns the voluntary application, including by deployers, of specific requirements to all AI systems, on the basis of clear objectives and key performance indicators to measure the achievement of those objectives. Article 95 sits in Chapter X, 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.
- Condition | any ofParagraph 3 sets out who may draw up a code of conduct: individual providers or deployers of AI systems, organisations representing them, or both, including with the involvement of any interested stakeholders and their representative organisations, including civil society organisations and academia. A code may cover one or more AI systems, taking into account the similarity of the intended purpose of the relevant systems.
- ExceptionArticle 95 contains no provision that sets aside, suspends or replaces an obligation under this Regulation. The word voluntary refers to the application of requirements that precisely do not apply to the system concerned, and not to the requirements that do apply. A code of conduct on AI literacy leaves Article 4 untouched, and a code of conduct on transparency leaves Article 50 untouched.
As long as this exception is not ruled out, the outcome stays conditional and you have to establish it yourself.

- Condition | allRelevant as soon as you are an operator within the meaning of the Regulation, that is a provider, product manufacturer, deployer, authorised representative, importer or distributor, and one of the provisions named in Article 99(3), (4) or (5) is engaged. The Article 101 regime is additionally relevant where you are a provider of a general-purpose AI model, because there the Commission fines you itself. If you fall within the competence of the AI Office under Article 75(1), Article 75c is added on top.
- ExceptionParagraph 6 reverses the calculation for SMEs, including start-ups: for them the lower of the percentage and the amount applies, where for other undertakings it is the higher of the two, and it does so for every fine referred to in Article 99. The inserted paragraph 6a does the same for small mid-cap enterprises, but expressly only for paragraphs 4 and 5, so the Article 5 band is not reversed for them. Paragraph 8 leaves it to each Member State to determine to what extent administrative fines may be imposed on public authorities and bodies established in that Member State, so the ceiling for a public organisation does not follow from the Regulation. Paragraph 9 allows the fine to be imposed by the competent national courts or by other bodies rather than by the authority in some Member States.
