EU AI Act FAQs for Indian Companies
Does the EU AI Act apply to Indian companies?
Yes, the EU AI Act has extraterritorial scope. Indian companies must comply if they: (1) place AI systems on the EU market, (2) deploy AI systems in the EU, (3) provide AI services to EU users, or (4) use AI outputs affecting EU individuals. This includes Indian SaaS companies with EU customers.
What are the EU AI Act compliance deadlines?
The EU AI Act has staggered deadlines: Prohibited AI practices (6 months from entry), GPAI model obligations (12 months), High-risk AI systems in Annex III (24 months), High-risk AI in Annex I (36 months). Indian companies should begin compliance preparation immediately.
What is the penalty for EU AI Act non-compliance?
EU AI Act penalties are severe: up to EUR 35 million or 7% of global annual turnover for prohibited practices, EUR 15 million or 3% for high-risk violations, and EUR 7.5 million or 1.5% for incorrect information. For Indian companies with EU revenue, these fines can be substantial.
Do Indian SaaS companies need EU authorized representatives?
Yes, non-EU providers of high-risk AI systems must appoint an EU authorized representative. This representative acts as the compliance contact for EU authorities and must be established in an EU member state. AMLEGALS can facilitate authorized representative arrangements.
