What this law does
Drafted with AI from the cited sources under the direction of UnGovr staff. UnGovr holds editorial responsibility for this page.
The Act creates the Komisja Rozwoju i Bezpieczenstwa Sztucznej Inteligencji, the Committee for the Development and Security of Artificial Intelligence, as Poland's market-surveillance authority and notifying authority for the EU AI Act and the single point of contact the Regulation requires. The Committee imposes administrative fines in the cases, amounts, and on the conditions Chapter XII of Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 itself sets, rather than under a separate national fine schedule.
Fines are paid within 30 days of a final decision and go to the state budget. The Committee may reduce a fine by 10 to 50 percent for timely remedial action, or by 20 to 70 percent, or 30 to 90 percent for a small or medium enterprise, under a settlement. A decision imposing a fine may be appealed to the Regional Court in Warsaw acting as the competition and consumer protection court.
The Act does not itself apply to matters of national defense, national security including the special services, or academic research and development work that does not involve real-world testing under the Regulation's own definition. The Act's general provisions took effect 10 August 2026, 14 days after promulgation, and Articles 8 to 18 and Chapters 3 to 5, 8, and 9 do not take effect until 28 October 2026.
The Committee's Chairperson is to be appointed within 2 months of the Act's entry into force, the Committee is to hold its first meeting within 3 months, and the Committee's supporting organizational unit is to begin operating within 2 months.
