EU AI ACT
  • The EU AI Act (Regulation 2024/1689) applies directly across all member states. Prohibitions on unacceptable-risk AI systems have been in force since 2 February 2025; GPAI model rules since 2 August 2025. High-risk AI obligations are due from 2 August 2026, subject to the Digital Omnibus proposal which may defer enforcement. For the full implementation timeline, governance structure, and current status, see the European Union overview.
  • The Ministry of Economic Affairs and Employment (TEM) leads coordination; Traficom has been designated for market surveillance. A public consultation on the national implementation plan was concluded in 2024.
