Artikel 39 Konformitätsbewertungsstellen in Drittländern


Summary What does Article 39 of the AI act regulation say?

This brief article addresses the international dimension of conformity assessment under the AI Act.

It creates a pathway for conformity assessment bodies based in third countries to act as notified bodies within the Union's regulatory framework, provided the Union has concluded an agreement with that third country and the body meets the necessary standards.

It directly connects to Article 31, which sets out the requirements notified bodies must satisfy, serving as the benchmark against which third-country bodies are measured.

Important points:

  • Third-country conformity assessment bodies can be authorised to carry out the activities of notified bodies under this Regulation.
  • This is conditional on the Union having concluded an agreement with the relevant third country.
  • Eligibility requires the body to either meet the requirements of Article 31 or demonstrate an equivalent level of compliance.

Springlex's summary of the article, a reading aid, not a substitute for the legal text.

Konformitätsbewertungsstellen, die nach dem Recht eines Drittlands errichtet wurden, mit dem die Union ein Abkommen geschlossen hat, können ermächtigt werden, die Tätigkeiten notifizierter Stellen gemäß dieser Verordnung durchzuführen, sofern sie die Anforderungen gemäß Artikel 31 erfüllen oder das gleiche Maß an Konformität gewährleisten.
