Official Guidance

The CRA itself recognizes the need for practical assistance. Article 26 of the regulation mandates the European Commission to publish guidance to help economic operators, with a particular focus on micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises.

• Commission Guidance (Article 26): This guidance will cover key areas such as the scope of the regulation, the application of support periods, and the concept of substantial modification. As this guidance is published, the European Commission's websites, particularly those related to the digital single market or cybersecurity policy, will be the primary source for these documents.
