Artikel 45 Ikraftträdande

Summary What does Article 45 of the NIS 2 directive say?

This is an unusually brief, single-sentence article that serves a purely procedural function: it establishes when the NIS2 Directive formally enters into force.

It specifies a fixed trigger point tied to the date of the Directive's publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

Important points:

The Directive enters into force on the twentieth day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This article is distinct from the transposition deadline in Article 41, which sets the date by which Member States must adopt and apply the necessary national measures.
No action is required from any entity; this is a statement of legal fact regarding the Directive's formal commencement.

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

Detta direktiv träder i kraft den tjugonde dagen efter det att det har offentliggjorts i Europeiska unionens officiella tidning.
