EU AI Act Article 49 - Registration Template
Article 49 requires registration where that article applies. The useful job of the template is to record whether registration applies to the relevant AI system, which register is used, and what reference is retained in the provider package.

Who supplies what
What Article 49 expects, what the template can add, and what your team still owns
The template structures the registration record. It does not decide whether registration applies to your system and it does not perform registration for you.
| Article 49 expects | What the template can add | What your team still has to write | Practical output to keep |
|---|---|---|---|
| A registration record where Article 49 applies | A section that records whether registration applies to the relevant AI system. | State whether the system must be registered before it is placed on the market or put into service. | A registration-applicability note. |
| The actual registration route and reference | A place to record the register used and the resulting reference. | Record the EU database or other applicable registration route and the retained identifier. | A registration-reference note. |
| Responsible owner for keeping the registration current | A field for ownership and update responsibility. | Name the owner who keeps the registration record current. | A named registration owner. |
Manual fields
What your team still adds to Article 49
The template can structure the registration section, but your team still has to provide the applicability decision, the register reference, and the responsible owner.
| What you add | Why it is required | Practical format to use |
|---|---|---|
| Registration applicability decision | Article 49 has to be applied to the relevant system where the registration duty exists. | A short note stating whether registration applies and why. |
| Register and reference | Where registration applies, the provider needs the retained registration record. | A short note naming the register and the recorded reference. |
| Registration owner | The registration record has to stay current and attributable. | A named owner and update responsibility note. |
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is the Article 49 - Registration template page for?
This page explains what the Article 49 - Registration template section usually needs to cover inside an EU AI Act package, which parts can be supported by structured evidence, and which parts remain owned by the provider, deployer, or legal reviewer.
Does this Article 49 - Registration template page create a complete EU AI Act package?
No. It is one section-level guide. A review-ready package still needs the selected role and scope, the other applicable article-level sections, linked technical evidence, owner completion, and final human review.
What evidence should be linked to the Article 49 - Registration template section?
Use evidence that is current, traceable to the relevant system version, and connected to real runs, retained records, or approved procedures. A weak package relies only on narrative text; a stronger package links the narrative to reproducible artifacts.
Who should review the Article 49 - Registration template section before handoff?
The technical owner should confirm the system facts and evidence links, while compliance or legal reviewers confirm whether the section is sufficient for the selected EU AI Act role, scope, and conformity path.
