EU AI Act

High-risk AI must show how it is governed, with stand-alone systems due from December 2027.

ForHeads of AI governance and chief risk officers at EU firms running high-risk AI.

AIREGULATION

What’s changing, and when

The EU AI Act sets rules for AI by risk. The Digital Omnibus on AI, in force since 27 July 2026, moved the high-risk deadlines: stand-alone high-risk systems from 2 December 2027, and high-risk AI built into regulated products from 2 August 2028. Transparency duties have applied since 2 August 2026.

  1. Aug 2026 Transparency obligations apply
  2. Dec 2027 Stand-alone high-risk AI systems must comply
  3. Aug 2028 High-risk AI in regulated products must comply

Why it can’t happen in one step

Risk management, records and conformity have to be in place for every high-risk system, and guidance arrives through 2027, so firms move one system at a time.
