“The EU AI Act's high-risk obligations land in August 2026.”
This was correct until the Digital Omnibus deferred the high-risk deadlines by roughly eighteen months. A large amount of live sales material is now simply out of date.

La aritmética
Annex III stand-alone high-risk obligations moved from 2 August 2026 to 2 December 2027.
Annex I obligations — AI embedded in already-regulated products — moved from 2 August 2027 to 2 August 2028.
What did NOT move: Article 50 transparency obligations, including disclosing to a person that they are interacting with an AI system. Those remain live from 2 August 2026.
Also unchanged: prohibitions and AI-literacy provisions have applied since 2 February 2025, and the GPAI, governance and penalties chapters since 2 August 2025.
The practical effect is not "you have longer". It is that the deadline that applies to you now depends on which annex your system falls under, and most published guidance predates the change.
Qué cambiaría este veredicto
Further amendment, or a member-state implementation that pulls a national deadline earlier than the Union timetable. Both are checkable against primary sources.
