- Condition | allThe transitional rule is without prejudice to the application of Article 5, as referred to in Article 113, third paragraph, point (a). A prohibited practice remains prohibited, regardless of when the system was placed on the market or put into service and regardless of whether the design has changed.
- Condition | allThe transitional rule concerns the high-risk requirements of Chapter III and is not an exemption from the whole Regulation. Article 4 has applied since 2 February 2025 irrespective of when a system reached the market, and Article 50 has applied to all systems in scope since 2 August 2026. The paragraph 4 added by the Digital Omnibus confirms this: it gives legacy generative systems a short extra period for Article 50(2), which would make no sense if Article 50 did not reach them.
- Condition | allApplies to operators of high-risk AI systems placed on the market or put into service before the date of application of Chapter III referred to in Article 113, other than the systems referred to in paragraph 1 that are components of the large-scale IT systems listed in Annex X. That date is 2 December 2027 for systems that are high-risk under Article 6(2) and Annex III, and 2 August 2028 for systems that are high-risk under Article 6(1) and Annex I. For that group the high-risk requirements bite only once the systems are subject to significant changes in their designs as from that date.
- Condition | allThe grace period runs per type and model, not per unit. If at least one individual unit of the type and model was lawfully placed on the market or put into service before the cut off date, other units of the same type and model are covered too and may be offered without additional obligations, requirements or additional certification, as long as the design remains unchanged. The decisive date is the one on which the first unit of that type and model was placed on the market or put into service in the Union.
- Condition | allApplies independently to providers and deployers of high-risk AI systems intended to be used by public authorities. They must in any case take the necessary steps to comply with the requirements and obligations of the Regulation by 2 August 2030, even where the design remains unchanged.
- ExceptionSystems that are components of the large-scale IT systems established by the legal acts listed in Annex X fall not under paragraph 2 but under paragraph 1. Paragraph 1 was not amended by the Digital Omnibus and keeps its own cut off: placed on the market or put into service before 2 August 2027, with compliance by 31 December 2030.
As long as this exception is not ruled out, the outcome stays conditional and you have to establish it yourself.

- Condition | any ofApplies where a provider or authorised representative places an Annex III high-risk AI system on the market or puts it into service and registers itself and that system in accordance with Article 49, where that same party registers a system considered not to be high-risk pursuant to Article 6(3), or where a deployer that is, or that acts on behalf of, a public authority, agency or body registers itself, selects the system and registers its use.
- ExceptionArticle 49(5) provides that high-risk AI systems referred to in point 2 of Annex III are registered at national level. For those systems the registration therefore does not run through the Article 71 EU database.
- ExceptionParagraph 4 excludes the section referred to in Article 49(4) from public availability. For the systems referred to in points 1, 6 and 7 of Annex III in the areas of law enforcement, migration, asylum and border control management, registration takes place in a secure non-public section of the database, with fewer fields than the full Sections: Section A, points 1 to 10 with the exception of points 6, 8 and 9; Section B, points 1 to 5 and points 8 and 9; Section C, points 1, 2 and 3; and points 1, 2, 3 and 5 of Annex IX. Only the Commission and the national authorities referred to in Article 74(8) have access to those sections. Mind the cross-reference: Article 49(4) was not amended by Regulation (EU) 2026/1744 and therefore still names point 9 of Section B, while Article 1, point (42), of that same Regulation deleted that point. There is nothing left to fill in there.
- ExceptionParagraph 4 additionally excludes the section referred to in Article 60(4), point (c). The main rule there is not a secure section: the provider or prospective provider registers the testing in real world conditions in accordance with Article 71(4), with a Union wide unique single identification number and the information specified in Annex IX. Under the third sentence of paragraph 4 that information is accessible only to market surveillance authorities and the Commission, unless the provider or prospective provider has given consent for also making it accessible to the public. Only for points 1, 6 and 7 of Annex III does the testing registration go into the secure non-public section under Article 49(4), point (d), and for point 2 of Annex III to national level under Article 49(5).
As long as this exception is not ruled out, the outcome stays conditional and you have to establish it yourself.
