Artikel 36 Sanktionen


Summary What does Article 36 of the NIS 2 directive say?

This is a brief but important enforcement article that places an obligation on Member States to establish penalty frameworks for breaches of national measures implementing this Directive.

It sits alongside the more detailed Articles 32, 33, and 34, which deal with supervisory powers and administrative fines for specific entity types.

Article 36 acts as the overarching penalty mandate, ensuring that Member States have rules in place and that those rules meet a baseline standard.

Important points:

  • Member States must establish rules on penalties for infringements of national implementing measures, ensuring those penalties are effective, proportionate and dissuasive.
  • Member States are required to notify the Commission of their penalty rules and implementing measures by 17 January 2025.
  • Member States must also notify the Commission without delay of any subsequent amendments to those rules or measures.

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

Die Mitgliedstaaten erlassen Vorschriften über Sanktionen, die bei Verstößen gegen die gemäß dieser Richtlinie erlassenen nationalen Maßnahmen zu verhängen sind, und treffen alle für die Anwendung der Sanktionen erforderlichen Maßnahmen. Die vorgesehenen Sanktionen müssen wirksam, verhältnismäßig und abschreckend sein. Die Mitgliedstaaten teilen der Kommission diese Vorschriften und Maßnahmen bis zum 17. Januar 2025 mit und melden ihr unverzüglich alle diesbezüglichen Änderungen.
