Review of the overlap with sectoral product documentation
The control that ensures, for a system inside a product under Section A of Annex I, that the choice in paragraph 2 was made deliberately and remains visible: a cross-reference per requirement of Section 2 into the existing technical file, or two files with a recorded owner who keeps them in step.
The official source remains authoritative. This is general information about obligations and not legal advice. See this object on the map

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 | allApplies to every AI system that qualifies as high-risk under Article 6, along both routes: the system that falls under the Union harmonisation legislation of Annex I as a safety component of a product or as a product in its own right, and the system that falls within one of the areas of Annex III. For the Annex I route there is a limit that this Article does not state itself: Article 2(2), as replaced by Article 1, point (2)(a), of Regulation (EU) 2026/1744, makes only Article 6(1), Article 60a and Articles 102 to 112 applicable to systems related to products covered by Section B of Annex I. Article 8 is not in that list, so for Section B products, machinery among them since 27 July 2026, this provision does not bear. In addition, Article 2(13), inserted by Article 1, point (3), can limit the application of the requirements in Articles 9 to 15 and 17 to 25 for Section A products, but only once the delegated act it prescribes exists. Article 8 sets no additional threshold of its own: what is high-risk is the subject of Article 6 and not of this provision.
- Condition | allCompliance is not assessed in the abstract but against two measures at once: the intended purpose of the system, and the generally acknowledged state of the art on AI and AI-related technologies. The second measure lies outside the Regulation and has no fixed content, so what suffices changes without the text changing.
- Condition | any ofParagraph 2 only comes into play where a product contains an AI system to which both the requirements of this Regulation and those of the Union harmonisation legislation listed in Section A of Annex I apply. For a system that is high-risk through Annex III alone, paragraph 2 has no bearing.
- ExceptionThe integration in paragraph 2 is a choice and not a duty: providers shall have a choice of integrating, as appropriate, the necessary testing and reporting processes, information and documentation they provide with regard to their product into documentation and procedures that already exist. Anyone who does not integrate breaches nothing. What the provision does not permit is doing less: the responsibility for full compliance with all applicable requirements under the sectoral harmonisation legislation stands undiminished.
As long as this exception is not ruled out, the outcome stays conditional and you have to establish it yourself.
