Article 4 Completion of reporting template


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. Also, before it is finally adopted by the Commission, its wording, numbering and references may change, and entire articles might be removed or added.

Summary What does Article 4 of the ITS on AMLA reporting to the EPPO say?

This article governs how AMLA must complete the reporting template introduced in Article 3.

It establishes that the template is divided into mandatory and discretionary fields, and sets out the expectation that information belonging in the template should stay within it rather than being dispersed across separate reports.

It does, however, leave room for supplementary supporting documents to be attached outside the machine-readable format.

Important points:

  • AMLA is required to complete all mandatory fields in the reporting template for which it holds the relevant information.
  • AMLA must keep structured information within the reporting template itself and not submit it through separate reports.
  • AMLA may still annex supporting documents and other relevant material in a non-machine-readable format alongside the template.

Springlex's summary of the article is a reading aid, not a substitute for the legal text.

    1. The reporting template set out in the Annex contains mandatory and discretionary fields.

    1. AMLA shall complete all mandatory fields for which it holds the required information.

    2. Information that is requested through the structured fields of the machine-readable template shall generally be provided within the reporting template and shall not be submitted in separate reports. This does not preclude AMLA from annexing supporting documents and other relevant evidence or material in a non-machine-readable format.
