Article 71: EU database for high-risk AI systems listed in Annex III

The provider or, where applicable, the authorised representative enters the data listed in Sections A and B of Annex VIII into the EU database; the deployer who is, or who acts on behalf of, a public authority, agency or body enters the data listed in Section C. Information registered in accordance with Article 49 is publicly available in a user-friendly manner and machine-readable, except for the secure section covering law enforcement, migration, asylum and border control management and the registration of testing in real world conditions. Setting up and maintaining the database itself is a task of the Commission and not a duty of yours.

    • 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.

    • 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.

What this object states

Official fact

Attributable to a named primary source, with a locator. Where they differ, the official source prevails.

  • Paragraph 1 provides that the Commission shall, in collaboration with the Member States, set up and maintain an EU database containing the information referred to in paragraphs 2 and 3 concerning high-risk AI systems referred to in Article 6(2) which are registered in accordance with Articles 49 and 60, and AI systems that are not considered as high-risk pursuant to Article 6(3) and which are registered in accordance with Article 6(4) and Article 49. When setting the functional specifications the Commission shall consult the relevant experts, and when updating them the Board. Paragraph 2 provides that the data listed in Sections A and B of Annex VIII shall be entered into the database by the provider or, where applicable, by the authorised representative. Paragraph 3 provides that the data listed in Section C of Annex VIII shall be entered by the deployer who is, or who acts on behalf of, a public authority, agency or body, in accordance with Article 49(3) and (4). Paragraph 4 provides that, with the exception of the section referred to in Article 49(4) and Article 60(4), point (c), the information registered in accordance with Article 49 shall be accessible and publicly available in a user-friendly manner, and that the information should be easily navigable and machine-readable. The same paragraph provides that the information registered in accordance with Article 60 shall be accessible only to market surveillance authorities and the Commission, unless the prospective provider or provider has given consent for also making the information accessible to the public. Paragraph 5 provides that the database shall contain personal data only in so far as necessary for collecting and processing information in accordance with this Regulation, and that such information shall include the names and contact details of natural persons who are responsible for registering the system and have the legal authority to represent the provider or the deployer. Paragraph 6 provides that the Commission shall be the controller of the database, shall make adequate technical and administrative support available to providers, prospective providers and deployers, and that the database shall comply with the applicable accessibility requirements.

  • Annex VIII sets out which information is submitted upon registration and kept up to date thereafter. Section A, for providers registering in accordance with Article 49(1), lists thirteen points, including the name, address and contact details of the provider and of the authorised representative, the trade name and any additional unambiguous reference allowing identification and traceability of the system, a description of the intended purpose and of the components and functions supported, a basic and concise description of the information used and of the operating logic, the status of the system, the details and a scanned copy of the notified body certificate where applicable, the Member States where the system is available, a copy of the EU declaration of conformity referred to in Article 47 and the electronic instructions for use, which are not provided for the law enforcement, migration, asylum and border control management areas of points 1, 6 and 7 of Annex III. Section C, for deployers registering under Article 49(3), lists five points: the name, address and contact details of the deployer, the same details of the person submitting information on its behalf, the URL of the entry of the system in the database by its provider, a summary of the findings of the fundamental rights impact assessment carried out in accordance with Article 27, and where applicable a summary of the data protection impact assessment. Neither Section was amended by Regulation (EU) 2026/1744.

  • Section B of Annex VIII, for registrations under Article 49(2), was amended. Article 1, point (42), of Regulation (EU) 2026/1744 reads: "in Annex VIII, section B, points 7 and 9 are deleted". Deleted are therefore point 7, the short summary of the grounds on which the AI system is considered not to be high-risk in application of the procedure under Article 6(3), and point 9, the statement of any Member States in which the system has been placed on the market, put into service or made available in the Union. The Regulation does not renumber the remaining points. Section B therefore now lists seven points, numbered 1 to 6 and 8: the name, address and contact details of the provider; the same details of another person submitting information on the provider behalf; the same details of the authorised representative where applicable; the trade name and any additional unambiguous reference allowing identification and traceability of the system; a description of the intended purpose; the condition or conditions under Article 6(3) on the basis of which the system is considered not to be high-risk; and the status of the system. Recital 22 of 2026/1744 explains that registration is thereby made simpler and more proportionate, while expressly maintaining that a provider applying Article 6(3) remains obliged to document its assessment before the system is placed on the market or put into service, and that national competent authorities may request that assessment.

  • Article 49(4) lists exhaustively what goes into the secure non-public section, and that is less 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. The final subparagraph provides that only the Commission and the national authorities referred to in Article 74(8) have access to the respective restricted sections of the database. Annex IX carries the information provided upon registration of testing in real world conditions and kept up to date thereafter, and lists five points: a Union wide unique single identification number of the testing, the name and contact details of the provider or prospective provider and of the deployers involved, a short description of the AI system and its intended purpose together with the information needed to identify it, a summary of the main characteristics of the testing plan, and information on the suspension or termination of the testing.

  • Article 60(4), point (c), provides that the provider or prospective provider has registered 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. 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 that registration takes place in the secure non-public section in accordance with Article 49(4), point (d), and for the systems referred to in point 2 of Annex III in accordance with Article 49(5). Article 60 sits in Chapter VI of the Regulation, on measures in support of innovation. That point (c) was not amended by Regulation (EU) 2026/1744.

  • The scope of Article 60 itself was amended. Article 1, point (24), of Regulation (EU) 2026/1744 replaces the first subparagraph of Article 60(1) and Article 60(2): testing in real world conditions outside AI regulatory sandboxes is now also open to providers and prospective providers of high-risk AI systems covered by the Union harmonisation legislation listed in Section A of Annex I, alongside the systems listed in Annex III. Article 1, point (25), inserts an Article 60a for high-risk AI systems covered by the harmonisation legislation listed in Section B of Annex I: Member States may adopt frameworks for real-world testing for those systems, must notify the Commission of any such framework before implementing it, and those frameworks must among other things ensure compliance with Article 60(2), (3), (4)(d)-(j) and (5)-(9). The registration duty in Article 60(4), point (c), which refers to Article 71(4), falls outside that enumeration.

  • Article 1, point (40), of Regulation (EU) 2026/1744 amends the THIRD paragraph of Article 113, which is where points (a) to (d) sit. Point (40)(b) replaces point (c) with: Chapter III, Sections 1, 2, and 3, with the exception of Article 6(5), applies from 2 December 2027 as regards AI systems classified as high-risk pursuant to Article 6(2) and Annex III, and from 2 August 2028 as regards AI systems classified as high-risk pursuant to Article 6(1) and Annex I. Two things belong with that and are often left out: the exception for Article 6(5) falls outside this deferral, and point (40)(c) adds a point (d) under which Articles 102 to 110 apply from 27 July 2026.

  • Recital 131 explains why the database exists and how far the public availability reaches. It names as the aim facilitating the work of the Commission and the Member States and increasing transparency towards the public, states that this part of the database should be publicly accessible and free of charge and that the information should be easily searchable, understandable and machine-readable, and that the database should be user-friendly, for example by offering search functionalities including through keywords, so that the general public can find the registration information. It adds that any substantial modification of high-risk AI systems should also be registered in the database, that access to the secure non-public section should be strictly limited to the Commission and, as regards their national section, to market surveillance authorities, and that the database should comply with the requirements of Directive (EU) 2019/882.

Our interpretation

Our own reading. It can change without the law changing, and it is not the position of a supervisory authority.

  • This is one of the few obligations in the Regulation whose output is a public page about your organisation. Article 53(1), point (d), is the other one: the provider of a general-purpose AI model makes public a summary of the training content used. The difference is that the database is your own entry rather than a document on your own site. The rest of your file opens only when a supervisory authority asks; this opens to anyone who can search. On machine readability a caveat applies: the Dutch text of paragraph 4 says the information must be machine-readable, the English says should, and Recital 131 likewise speaks in recommending terms. So count on your text being read, but do not build an assumption of automated readability as a hard requirement. That changes who reads your text. The basic and concise description of the operating logic in Section A is read by competitors, journalists and municipal councils, and the summary of your fundamental rights impact assessment in Section C is read by exactly the people that assessment was about, with one important exception: for points 1, 6 and 7 of Annex III the secure section carries Section C only up to and including point 3, so that very summary is not entered there. Two things follow. First, the entry requires editing rather than form filling: whoever writes the summary as a formality publishes a formality. Second, keeping it current is not a side issue, because Annex VIII requires the information to be kept up to date thereafter and Recital 131 also names substantial modifications, and an entry that still shows a recalled system as in service is visibly wrong.

Recommended step

A practical step we consider appropriate. Not an obligation following from the Regulation.

  • Treat the entry as a publication and not as a form. Designate per system the natural person who has the legal authority to register, because paragraph 5 provides that their name and contact details go into the database. Write the description of the intended purpose, of the operating logic and, for a public deployer, the summary of the fundamental rights impact assessment so that you can let them be read without explanation. Settle the sequence in your procurement contract: point 3 of Section C asks for the URL of the entry of the system in the database by its provider, so a municipality can only complete its Section C after its supplier has entered Section A. Record within what period the supplier delivers that URL and what happens if it does not. Also record when the entry was last checked against reality and tie that to your change and decommissioning process, so that status, Member States and declaration of conformity move with it. On procurement, check that the system is listed in the database before you put it into use: if it is not listed, a deployer may not use it under Article 26(8) and has to inform the provider or the distributor.

When this applies

  1. 1Applies 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.

When this does not apply

  • Article 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.
  • Paragraph 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.
  • Paragraph 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).
