Artikel 48 Standardisering


Summary What does Article 48 of the DMA regulation say?

This is a brief, enabling article that grants the Commission a discretionary power to involve European standardisation bodies in the practical implementation of the Digital Markets Act.

Rather than setting out obligations directly, it provides a mechanism by which technical standards can be developed to support the application of the regulation's requirements, but only where the Commission deems it appropriate and necessary.

Important points:

  • The Commission has the discretion to mandate European standardisation bodies to develop standards — this is a power, not an obligation.
  • The purpose of any such standards would be to facilitate implementation of the obligations already set out in the regulation.
  • This article acts as a supporting tool for the broader regulatory framework, complementing the Commission's other implementing powers found in Article 46.

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

När så är lämpligt och nödvändigt får kommissionen uppdra åt europeiska standardiseringsorgan att underlätta genomförandet av de skyldigheter som föreskrivs i denna förordning genom att utveckla lämpliga standarder.
