Data Act: data access by design for new products

Design obligation for products placed on the market after this date · Regulation (EU) 2023/2854, Article 3(1) · European Commission

IndustryMaritime EU Law

Connected products placed on the market after 12 September 2026 must be designed so that the product data is accessible to the user by default, directly where relevant and free of charge. This pushes the Data Act into product design rather than only into contracts.
