Article 88 Rapports


Summary What does Article 88 of the Anti-money laundering regulation (AMLR) say?

This article places an obligation on the Commission to submit reports to the European Parliament and the Council by 10 July 2030, evaluating whether certain thresholds, scopes, and limits within the regulation remain appropriate.

It sits alongside Article 87, which sets out a broader periodic review of the regulation as a whole, but Article 88 is narrower and more targeted, focusing on four specific areas where the current rules may need to be recalibrated over time.

Important points:

  • The Commission is required to submit reports to the European Parliament and the Council by 10 July 2030 on the four areas identified.
  • The reports cover: the 25% beneficial ownership threshold, the scope of high-value goods, the threshold-based disclosure rules under Article 74 including free-trade zone reporting, and the large cash payment limit.
  • The reports assess necessity and proportionality only — no changes to the rules are mandated by this article itself.

  1. abaisser le seuil de 25 % utilisé pour l’identification des bénéficiaires effectifs d’entités juridiques par une participation au capital;

  2. étendre le champ d’application des biens de grande valeur pour inclure les vêtements et accessoires de grande valeur;

  3. étendre le champ d’application des divulgations fondées sur des seuils au titre de l’article 74 à la vente d’autres biens, instaurer des formats harmonisés pour la déclaration de ces transactions en fonction de l’utilité de ces déclarations pour les CRF, et étendre le champ d’application des informations recueillies auprès des personnes négociant dans les zones franches;
