In force.

An AI transparency rule binding public and private bodies.

As of 5 September 2026.

What it requires

  • If you use an AI system to make a decision about a person in El Salvador without meaningful human review, and it negatively affects their health, financial services, employment, education, government benefits, housing or transportation, notify them.
  • In that notification, confirm that AI was involved, explain the role it played, and give the person a way to challenge the decision.
  • This notification duty does not apply where disclosure would undermine fraud detection or cybersecurity, where the system supports law enforcement or national-security functions, or where the AI's role is limited to content recommendation, search results, ad optimization, or basic spellcheck or grammar assistance.

What this law does

Drafted with AI from the cited sources under the direction of UnGovr staff. UnGovr holds editorial responsibility for this page.

Article 24 requires any entity using an AI system to make a decision affecting a person in El Salvador to notify them, independent of whether the entity is subject to registration, whenever the decision was made without meaningful human review and negatively affects the person's rights or economic situation in health, financial services, employment, education, government benefits, housing, or transportation.

The notification must be clear and understandable and must at minimum confirm that AI was involved, explain the role it played, and provide a mechanism to challenge the decision. Article 25 exempts the duty where disclosure would undermine fraud detection or cybersecurity, support law enforcement or national-security functions, or where the AI's role is limited to content recommendation, search results, advertising optimization, or basic spellcheck and grammar assistance.
