- AIGO risks;
- AIGO controls;
- AIGO assessments;
- AIGO approvals;

This mapping is an operational governance crosswalk. It is not legal advice, a conformity assessment, or a declaration of compliance.
2. Mapping Information
Regulation (EU) 2026/1744, adopted on 8 July 2026 and published on 24 July 2026, amended Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 as part of the Digital Omnibus on AI. The mapping therefore uses the amended legal baseline rather than reproducing the unamended 2024 timetable.
3. Authoritative Source Hierarchy
The mapping shall apply the following source hierarchy.3.1 Binding Legal Source
The primary source is: Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 of the European Parliament and of the Council as amended by applicable subsequent Union legislation, including: Regulation (EU) 2026/1744 — Digital Omnibus on AI. The binding legal text is authoritative for legal requirements.3.2 Official Implementation Material
Supporting sources may include:- European Commission guidance;
- European AI Office guidance;
- official FAQs;
- codes of practice;
- delegated acts;
- implementing acts;
- common specifications;
- harmonised standards when formally applicable;
- other official implementation material.
3.3 AIGO Mapping
AIGO translates the legal requirement into an operational governance relationship. An AIGO mapping does not change the legal requirement.4. Mapping Methodology
Each mapped provision should answer the following questions:- What legal requirement applies?
- Who is the affected actor?
- To which AI systems or activities does it apply?
- When does it apply?
- Are there exceptions or transitional provisions?
- What AIGO governance domain addresses it?
- What AIGO risk or governance objective is relevant?
- What AIGO control implements or supports it?
- What assessment is required?
- What approval or decision is required?
- What monitoring is required?
- What evidence should exist?
- What assurance may be appropriate?
- What happens when the requirement is not satisfied?
- What lifecycle stages are affected?
5. Mapping Relationship Types
The following relationship types are used:
A direct AIGO mapping does not itself establish legal compliance.
6. Actor Mapping
The EU AI Act applies differently depending on actor role. AIGO should therefore capture the applicable actor before applying detailed requirements. Primary actor categories include:7. Applicability Model
The primary AIGO applicability chain is:8. AIGO Applicability Record
For material EU AI Act assessments, AIGO should maintain:9. AIGO Classification Versus EU AI Act Category
AIGO classification and EU AI Act classification must remain separate concepts. An AI system may have:- an AIGO risk classification;
- an EU AI Act category;
- a sector classification;
- a technical risk classification;
- a privacy classification;
- a security classification.
10. Core AIGO Mapping Architecture
The principal crosswalk is:11. Article 1 — Subject Matter and Purpose

75. Current Application Timeline
The mapping package shall use the current legal and Commission baseline. The European Commission currently states:- the AI Act entered into force on 1 August 2024;
- the general application date is 2 August 2026;
- prohibitions and AI-literacy provisions applied from 2 February 2025 under the staged framework;
- governance and GPAI obligations applied from 2 August 2025;
- specified high-risk use cases under Annex III apply from 2 December 2027;

76. Current GPAI Timeline
The current Commission guidance states:- GPAI obligations became applicable from 2 August 2025;
- Commission enforcement powers apply from 2 August 2026;
- GPAI models placed on the market before 2 August 2025 have until 2 August 2027 to comply.

- high-risk AI embedded in products such as machinery, toys, and lifts applies from 2 August 2028.
78. Current Transparency Baseline
The general AI Act framework reaches its general application milestone on 2 August 2026, and the Commission’s current implementation material identifies Article 50 transparency obligations as part of the rules applying at that stage. AIGO should therefore treat transparency as a current operational mapping area rather than a future-only requirement.79. Digital Omnibus Integration

- after material enforcement developments;
- after relevant case law;
- before major AIGO releases.
82. Mapping Ownership
