Reg (EU) 2024/1689Generate dossier — €249

Your UK company sells AI-powered software to EU customers. Post-Brexit, you are a non-EU provider under Article 2.1(a) of Regulation (EU) 2024/1689. Advisory platforms explain the scope. Compliance platforms have the 2026 guide. Commentators ask if you can ignore it. You cannot. Generate the documentation.

The Financial Times reports UK ministers resisting alignment with EU AI rules. That means no UK equivalent is coming. If your UK company sells AI into the EU market, you are a third-country provider — same status as US, Indian, or Chinese companies. Article 2.1(a) applies regardless of where the provider is established. Your EU customers will ask for Annex IV documentation. RMOK Legal published their guide this month. SnapGRC has the compliance overview. None of them generate the twelve-document file. AICheck does. 45 minutes. €249. Browser-side.

Post-Brexit UK and the EU AI Act: the provider status question

Article 2.1(a) of Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 applies to providers placing AI systems on the EU market — regardless of where the provider is established. Post-Brexit, the UK is a third country. Your UK company is a non-EU provider.

Article 22 requires non-EU providers to appoint an EU Authorized Representative. UK ministers resist alignment with EU AI rules — no domestic AI regulation covers EU obligations. Your EU customers need documentation now.

Art. 2.1(a)
Applies to providers placing AI on EU market — UK = non-EU

Non-EU providers must appoint an EU Authorized Representative

Mistakes UK companies make with the EU AI Act

ERROR COMÚN

"We are a UK company — EU regulation does not apply post-Brexit"

Brexit removed the UK from the EU regulatory framework for domestic purposes. But the EU AI Act is a product regulation: it applies to products placed ON the EU market, regardless of origin. If your AI software is used by EU clients, it is on the EU market. Post-Brexit UK is treated the same as any third country.

ERROR COMÚN

"The UK will pass its own AI regulation and we will comply with that"

The UK government has signalled a pro-innovation, light-touch approach. As of April 2026, there is no UK equivalent of the EU AI Act. Even if the UK passes legislation, it will not satisfy EU requirements. EU and UK compliance are separate tracks. Your EU customers need EU documentation.

ERROR COMÚN

"Our EU distributor handles regulatory compliance"

If your EU distributor only resells without modification, provider obligations remain with you (Art. 3(7)). If the distributor places the system under their own name or makes substantial modifications (Art. 25), they become the provider. Verify your distribution agreement. In most cases, the UK company retains provider status.

What each ZIP contains: 12 documents

Structured documentation vs. third-party audit

● CAPA 1

What AICheck does

Generates the technical documentation for each system under Art. 11 and Annex IV of Regulation (EU) 2024/1689. Structures the 9 points of Annex IV individually per system. 12 PDF documents per system.

∅ CAPA 2

What AICheck does NOT do

Does not audit your systems. Does not evaluate whether your training data is adequate. Does not validate that your model performs correctly. That is your responsibility and, if needed, that of a notified body under Art. 43.

AICheck solves Layer 1 so your team can focus on Layer 2. At €249 per system, documentation stops being the bottleneck.

What AICheck guarantees and what it does not

AICheck generates a document structured under Article 11 and Annex IV of Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 based on the information you enter. The truthfulness, accuracy and completeness of that information is your responsibility as provider of the AI system.

We guarantee that the document structure follows Article 11 and Annex IV of Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 and that the legal references cited are correct as of the latest verification date. We do not guarantee that a specific document will be accepted by a market surveillance authority in a specific case, nor by a commercial buyer in a procurement process.

AICheck is not legal advice. For specific situations, consult a lawyer or specialised regulatory consultancy.

Frequently asked questions — UK companies and the EU AI Act

Does the EU-UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement (TCA) exempt UK companies from the AI Act?
No. The TCA does not include mutual recognition of AI regulation. The EU AI Act is a unilateral product regulation. UK companies placing AI on the EU market are treated as non-EU providers under Article 2.1(a), regardless of the TCA.
We have a UK subsidiary and an EU subsidiary. Which one is the provider?
The provider is the entity that places the AI system on the EU market (Art. 3(3)). If your EU subsidiary places the system under its own name, it is the provider and does not need an Art. 22 representative. If the UK parent places the system and the EU subsidiary only distributes, the UK parent is the provider and needs Art. 22 representation.
Is there an adequacy decision for AI between the UK and EU?
No. Adequacy decisions exist for data protection (GDPR). There is no equivalent concept in the AI Act. The AI Act applies based on market placement, not on mutual recognition. UK companies comply with the AI Act directly, not through equivalence.
Does UKCA marking have any relevance to EU AI Act compliance?
No. UKCA marking is the UK's domestic conformity assessment framework. The EU AI Act requires its own conformity assessment (Art. 43) and CE marking (Art. 48) for high-risk AI systems. UKCA and CE are separate marks for separate regulatory regimes.
Is this a subscription?
No. One-time payment. The licence includes 30 days of editing and 10 regenerations. The downloaded PDF is yours to keep.
Can I request a refund?
Under Article 16.m of Directive (EU) 2011/83 on consumer rights, by activating the licence you give express consent for the immediate generation of the digital content and waive the 14-day withdrawal period. Refunds are accepted only for verifiable reproducible technical failures.
What if the regulation changes?
If the regulation changes during the validity of your licence, you may regenerate the document with the updated version of the generator at no additional cost.
⚠️ Important notice: AICheck is a self-assessment documentation tool, not legal advice and not a third-party audit. The document under Article 11 and Annex IV of Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 is generated from your input data. You are responsible for the accuracy of the data you provide. AICheck does not replace a qualified professional assessment.

Post-Brexit, your UK company is a non-EU provider. Your EU customers need the documentation. Generate it in 45 minutes.

Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 does not wait. Each high-risk system needs 12 documents under Annex IV. AICheck generates them in 45 minutes per system, 100% in your browser, with no data leaving your device.
