AI Act authority in EU institutions, bodies and agencies: EDPS (market surveillance authority for the Union institutions)

For AI systems used by Union institutions, bodies and agencies, the desk is the European Data Protection Supervisor (EDPS (market surveillance authority for the Union institutions)), not a Member State authority.

Checked 2026-09-17 against a Commission page last updated 2026-09-07. This is a dated copy of that register, not legal advice.

What to do with this row

If your customer is an EU institution, put EDPS on the inventory row. A national SPOC will not take that file.

  1. Open the Commission register and confirm the row has not moved.
  2. Write the name, the status, and today's date on the inventory line for this country.
  3. GPAI models still go to the AI Office, even if this national desk is named.

This table is a dated copy of the Commission's Single Point of Contact register, checked on 2026-09-17 against a page the Commission last updated on 2026-09-07. It is not legal advice and it is not a substitute for the live register. A national law can name an authority before this list does. GPAI models are supervised by the AI Office regardless of which country your users sit in.
