Classify your AI systems against Annex III high-risk categories and Article 6 risk tiers. Know your obligations, gaps, and penalty exposure. High-risk Annex III systems face full enforcement December 2, 2027 (AI Omnibus deferral, May 2026); GPAI enforcement powers active August 2026.
EU AI Act at a glance: High-risk Annex III systems (employment AI, credit scoring, education placement, critical infrastructure) face full enforcement December 2, 2027 — deferred 16 months by AI Omnibus (May 2026). Prohibited practices (Art. 5) carry fines up to €35M or 7% of global turnover, enforcement active since Feb 2, 2025. If your AI system affects EU residents' access to employment, credit, education, or essential services, it's likely high-risk.

The EU AI Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/1689) categorizes AI systems by risk level. The higher the risk, the more obligations you carry — and the higher your penalty exposure if you fail to comply.
Minimal risk (Art. 51): Chatbots, AI in video games, spam filters. No mandatory obligations — but transparency requirements under Art. 50 apply if you use AI in a way that could be mistaken for human interaction.
Limited risk: Deepfakes, AI-generated content. Must disclose AI origin to users (Art. 50). GPAI model providers must publish training data summaries and copyright policies (Art. 53).
High risk (Art. 6 + Annex III): HR AI, credit scoring, biometric systems, AI in education, essential services, law enforcement, migration, and democratic process AI. Requires conformity assessment, technical documentation, risk management, human oversight, and post-market monitoring.
Prohibited (Art. 5): Social scoring by public authorities, subliminal manipulation techniques, biometric surveillance in public spaces (with narrow exceptions), and untargeted facial recognition scraping. Fines up to €35M or 7% of global turnover. Enforcement active since February 2, 2025.
Full enforcement for high-risk AI systems under Annex III (Art. 113) begins December 2, 2027 — deferred 16 months from the original August 2026 date by the AI Omnibus (May 2026 provisional deal). The AI Omnibus does NOT reduce compliance complexity: conformity assessments take 12-18 months, so organizations should be building compliance programs now, not treating the deferral as a pause button.
