What EU AI Act - High-Risk AI in Migration, Asylum, and Border Control (Annex III Point 7) requires
EU AI Act (Regulation 2024/1689) Annex III Point 7 designates as high-risk all AI systems used in migration, asylum, and border control management by competent authorities, covering: (7a) AI for individual risk assessment or lie detection for the purpose of border control or in support of asylum or visa applications; (7b) AI for examination of asylum applications and supporting assessments of the applicant's credibility and risk of irregular migration; (7c) AI for verification of authenticity of travel documents; (7d) AI for monitoring and surveillance of irregular migrants; these systems are among the most sensitive in the EU AI Act's high-risk classification given the direct impact on asylum seekers' fundamental rights, the risk of refoulement (return to persecution) where AI errors affect asylum decisions, and the overlap with EU Charter rights including the right to asylum (Article 18), prohibition of non-refoulement (Article 19), and right to human dignity (Article 1); the Regulation additionally excludes from EU AI Act scope migration AI used exclusively for national security purposes under Article 83, but this exclusion does not cover most border control and asylum assessment AI operated by national border and immigration authorities; EU Agency for Asylum (EUAA) and Frontex AI systems are subject to EU AI Act compliance as Union institutions from February 2026.
