EU AI Act applicability dates and your compliance runway

The EU AI Act phases in on a runway, and the platform tracks the dates for you rather than treating everything as due today. General-purpose AI and transparency obligations reached their applicability date on 2 August 2026, while the Annex III high-risk obligations apply from 2 December 2027 — so for high-risk systems you have runway to that date to close your evidence, not an immediate deadline. Your obligation status shows which items are already applicable and which are still on the runway; treat these dates as planning milestones and confirm the current position with a qualified adviser. This is informational only and not legal advice: the platform's regulatory content is a scaffold pending qualified-professional review, so confirm any obligation with a qualified adviser before you rely on it.
