ディープダイブ
Article 56 of the EU AI Act encourages the AI Office to facilitate codes of practice that support proper application of the Regulation. The General-Purpose AI Code of Practice was published on July 10, 2025, after independent experts and stakeholders developed its text. It has three chapters: Transparency and Copyright for GPAI providers generally, and Safety and Security for providers of models with systemic risk. The Commission’s current page lists signatories and states that the code is an adequate voluntary tool. The code translates duties into practical documentation and processes. Its Transparency chapter supports information providers must keep or give downstream developers, while the Copyright chapter supports the required policy for complying with EU copyright law and rights reservations. The Safety and Security chapter offers practices for systemic-risk evaluation, assessment, mitigation, incident handling, and cybersecurity. It is not a general AI-system code and does not replace Article 53 or Article 55. Signing is voluntary. Under Articles 53(4) and 55(2), providers may rely on an approved code to demonstrate compliance until harmonised standards are published. A provider that does not adhere to an approved code or applicable standard must demonstrate alternative adequate means for Commission assessment. Following the code is therefore a route to show compliance, not a product certificate, blanket authorization, or immunity from enforcement. Regulation (EU) 2026/1744 amended Article 56 to require the Commission and the AI Board to monitor codes and assess whether they adequately cover the GPAI obligations, with public assessment. The current Commission page reports its status through July 31, 2026. Providers should verify the latest approved version, signature status, and standards when planning compliance. This is an informational overview, not legal advice.

The Future of The EU General-Purpose AI Code of Practice
The Code of Practice may be updated as standards and implementation evidence develop. Regulation (EU) 2026/1744 makes adequacy review and ongoing monitoring explicit, so provider reliance should track the Commission’s current assessment. Providers can prepare an alternative compliance case if they do not sign or if a chapter fails to cover a specific duty. Check the current AI Office page before each major compliance review. Monitor any assessment published after the Commission’s latest review. Check the current Code before renewal.
現実世界の実装
A provider signs the Transparency and Copyright chapters and uses the model documentation form to organize Article 53 evidence.
A systemic-risk provider compares its safety framework and incident process with the Safety and Security chapter before deciding whether to sign.
A provider that does not sign builds an alternative-compliance record because the Act still applies.
A compliance lead checks Commission updates on code adequacy, signatories, and harmonised standards rather than treating a past signature as permanent approval.
