AI Notified Body

Definition

An independent third-party organisation designated by an EU Member State to conduct conformity assessments of high-risk AI systems. Not all high-risk AI requires a notified body—many categories allow self-assessment—but systems used in critical infrastructure or law enforcement typically do not.

Conformity Assessment

The formal process by which a high-risk AI system is evaluated against the requirements of the EU AI Act before being placed on the market. Depending on the risk category, assessment may be self-conducted or require a third-party notified body.

CE Marking (AI)

The European conformity mark that high-risk AI systems must bear before entering the EU market, indicating compliance with applicable EU regulations including the AI Act. The CE mark serves as a declaration that the system meets safety, health, and environmental protection standards.

EU AI Act

The world's first comprehensive AI regulation, adopted by the European Union in 2024 and phasing in through 2027–2028 (prohibitions from February 2025, GPAI obligations from August 2025, stand-alone high-risk systems from 2 December 2027, and high-risk AI embedded in regulated products from 2 August 2028). It classifies AI systems by risk level—unacceptable, high, limited, and minimal—and imposes obligations proportionate to risk, from outright bans to conformity assessments and transparency requirements.
