Article 63: Derogations for specific operators
Feedback – We are working to improve this tool. Please send feedback to Risto Uuk at risto@futureoflife.org
1. Microenterprises within the meaning of Recommendation 2003/361/EC may comply with certain elements of the quality management system required by Article 17 of this Regulation in a simplified manner, provided that they do not have partner enterprises or linked enterprises within the meaning of that Recommendation. For that purpose, the Commission shall develop guidelines on the elements of the quality management system which may be complied with in a simplified manner considering the needs of microenterprises, without affecting the level of protection or the need for compliance with the requirements in respect of high-risk AI systems.
2. Paragraph 1 of this Article shall not be interpreted as exempting those operators from fulfilling any other requirements or obligations laid down in this Regulation, including those established in Articles 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 72 and 73.

Where new Articles have been added in later versions, and important fixes have been made, these changes have been replicated in the AI Act Explorer too. Also, in the 'Texts Adopted' from March 2024, many items were re-named or re-numbered, and items in the AI Act Explorer were updated accordingly. This means the content on our site no longer matches exactly with any official AI Act draft – it is a hybrid of multiple drafts. If you find an important update in a later draft that has not been updated in our tool, please let us know.
When a final draft is available, all of the text in the AI Act Explorer will be updated to reflect it.
