EU AI Act Compliance
The EU AI Act (Regulation 2024/1689) is the world first comprehensive AI regulation. Since February 2025, it is legally binding for all organizations deploying AI systems in the European Union.
What the EU AI Act requires
- Risk classification: Every AI system must be classified as minimal, limited, high, or unacceptable risk
- Transparency obligations: Users must be informed when interacting with AI systems
- Documentation: Technical documentation, logging, and record-keeping for high-risk systems
- Human oversight: High-risk AI must allow human intervention and override
- Conformity assessment: High-risk systems require assessment before market placement
- Register of high-risk AI systems: In an EU database managed by the AI Office
