The Article 6(3) exemption returns with a registration string attached

The Article 6(3) exemption lets a provider conclude that an Annex III system does not pose a significant risk and therefore is not high-risk. The Omnibus keeps that route but attaches a lighter registration obligation to it.

The effect is that self-assessing out of the high-risk tier is no longer silent. A provider that relies on the exemption is expected to record that judgement and, in lighter form, register the system — leaving a trail an authority can inspect.

This is a sensible middle path between full high-risk registration and no visibility at all. For compliance teams it means the exemption is a documented decision with its own paperwork, not an off-ramp that removes the system from the regulator's view.
