EU Commission opens call for evidence on DSA advertising repository guidelines

The European Commission is gathering early feedback to shape technical guidelines on how very large online platforms and search engines must design their advertising repositories under the Digital Services Act. This item covers what the call for evidence asks, the timeline through to publication in 2028, and what the guidelines are meant to fix about ad library searchability and transparency.

  • The call for evidence opens 4 November 2026 and closes 2 December 2026.
  • Guidelines will cover searchability, targeting transparency and accessibility of advertisement content in VLOP and VLOSE repositories.
  • Article 39 requires VLOPs and VLOSEs to maintain publicly accessible repositories of advertisements shown on their services.
  • A targeted public consultation on a draft follows in 2027, with publication planned for the second quarter of 2028.
  • The guidelines are issued under Article 39(3) after consultation with the European Board for Digital Services, researchers and the public.

EU publishes first AI Act harmonised standard, giving high-risk providers a conformity route

The European Commission has cited the first harmonised standard supporting the AI Act in the Official Journal. EN 18286:2026 gives providers of high-risk AI systems an operational quality management route to Article 17 compliance, with a presumption of conformity. This matters because it is the first concrete technical pathway ahead of the high-risk obligations that apply from December 2027 and August 2028.

  • EN 18286:2026 gives providers of high-risk AI systems a presumption of conformity with the Article 17 quality management requirements it covers.
  • The standard is cited through Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2026/2274 and was developed by CEN and CENELEC.
  • EN 18286 is built around the AI system lifecycle and is designed to layer on top of ISO/IEC 42001, ISO 9001 or sectoral standards such as ISO 13485 rather than replace them.
  • High-risk AI system requirements apply from December 2027 and August 2028, with further harmonised standards expected to follow.

Commission publishes DSA study mapping online financial scams and platform countermeasures

The European Commission has released a commissioned study mapping how financial scams spread across online intermediary services, including VLOPs and VLOSEs, and what platforms can do to stop them. It is a supervisory input under the Digital Services Act, not a compliance assessment. For anyone running trust-and-safety or financial-crime functions at a large platform, it signals the evidence base the Commission will draw on in future enforcement.

  • The study was published on 20 October 2026 and procured by the Commission in 2025 to support DSA supervisory and enforcement tasks.
  • It categorises online financial scams into six types and finds investment and romance scams the most common and fastest-growing in Europe.
  • Four countermeasure categories are identified: access and gatekeeping, detection and removal, user-facing measures, and platform-level policies and third-party cooperation.
  • The study, by Open Evidence and Spark Legal and Policy Consulting, does not evaluate compliance by providers of VLOPs and VLOSEs.
