This is a draft act
This text has been parsed from the AMLA final report draft as published on 3 July 2026. While we run a suite of validations, the automated parsing can result in errors.

Summary What does Article 3 of the ITS on AMLA reporting to the EPPO say?
This article establishes the practical mechanism by which AMLA communicates its findings to the EPPO.
It requires AMLA to use a standardised reporting template — structured according to the Annex of the Regulation — to transmit the results of joint analyses and any other relevant information.
Critically, this submission must be made in a machine-readable format, ensuring consistency and automated processability.
This article works in close conjunction with Articles 4 and 5, which further govern the content of the template and the secure channel through which it must be submitted.
Important points:
- AMLA is required to use the reporting template set out in the Annex, completing it in accordance with the instructions contained therein.
- AMLA must submit the reporting template to the EPPO in a machine-readable format.
- Note that Article 7 delays the machine-readable format requirement specifically until 10 July 2028, one year after the rest of the Regulation begins to apply.
