Artikel 77 Aufhebung


Summary What does Article 77 of the Sixth anti-money laundering (AML 6) directive say?

This is a brief but consequential article that formally repeals the predecessor legislation, Directive (EU) 2015/849 (the previous Anti-Money Laundering Directive), with effect from 10 July 2027.

It also provides a continuity mechanism, ensuring that any existing references to the repealed Directive are automatically redirected to this new Directive and to Regulation (EU) 2024/1624, guided by a correlation table in the Annex.

This article works in direct conjunction with Article 78, which sets out the transposition deadline of 10 July 2027, meaning the repeal takes effect precisely when Member States are required to have the new framework in place.

Important points:

  • Directive (EU) 2015/849 is repealed with effect from 10 July 2027.
  • References to the repealed Directive are to be read as references to this Directive and Regulation (EU) 2024/1624, using the correlation table in the Annex.
  • The repeal date aligns with the transposition deadline set out in Article 78, ensuring no legal gap between the old and new frameworks.
