Frequently Asked Questions

What is a notified body under the AI Act?
A notified body is an organization authorized by the European Union to assess whether AI systems comply with legal requirements under the AI Act; these bodies perform evaluations, issue certifications, and help ensure that AI solutions being introduced into the European market meet necessary safety and ethical standards.
How does the European Union identify different notified bodies?
The European Commission gives each notified body a single, unique identification number that remains the same even if the organization is authorized under multiple European laws; this helps clearly distinguish each body, avoid confusion, and ensure transparency for users and businesses working with AI systems across Europe.
Where can I find a list of notified bodies for the AI Act?
The European Commission publishes an official public list of all notified bodies authorized under the AI Act, including their unique identification numbers and the types of evaluations and activities each body is allowed to carry out; this updated list helps users easily check if a body is officially recognized.
How frequently is the list of notified bodies updated?
The European Commission makes sure the list of notified bodies is always accurate and current by regularly updating it whenever new notified bodies are approved or existing bodies change their authorized activities, enabling businesses and individuals to have confidence when selecting a notified body for AI system certification.
