Complete the applicable conformity assessment and prepare: Which combination is the correct precondition
A high-risk system's release precondition is completing conformity assessment plus technical documentation and instructions for use for deployers.
The question
A vendor is about to release an AI system that qualifies as high-risk under the EU AI Act and will be sold to enterprise deployers across the EU. The release board must confirm readiness. Which combination is the correct precondition before the system may be placed on the market?

- Complete the applicable conformity assessment and prepare technical documentation and instructions for use so deployers can operate the system correctly. ✓High-risk systems must undergo conformity assessment and ship with technical documentation and instructions for use, which is the readiness precondition for market placement.
- Obtain explicit consent from each end user affected and publish a plain-language notice, since consent is the primary lawful gate for releasing high-risk systems.Individual consent is a GDPR processing concept, not the EU AI Act readiness gate; high-risk release turns on conformity assessment and documentation, not user consent.
- Register the trademark and finalize commercial licensing terms, then release, since intellectual-property clearance is the outstanding readiness item for a market launch.IP and licensing are commercial concerns unrelated to the AI Act conformity obligations that gate a high-risk system's release.
- Purchase cyber-insurance sized to the potential penalties and set aside a reserve, since financial coverage is what demonstrates the system is ready for the market.Insurance transfers financial risk but does not satisfy the conformity assessment and documentation requirements needed before placing a high-risk system on the market.
The trap
Confusing GDPR consent or commercial/insurance steps with the EU AI Act conformity-assessment gate for high-risk release. How to remember it
A high-risk system's release precondition is completing conformity assessment plus technical documentation and instructions for use for deployers.
