# CRA Penalties and Fines: Article 64 Caps and Enforcement Context

Article 64 of the EU Cyber Resilience Act sets administrative fine ceilings for Annex I, manufacturer, reporting, economic-operator, notified-body, and information-request breaches.

*Artifact Guide* *EU*

## Cyber Resilience Act penalties and fines

Article 64 sets EU-level administrative fine ceilings, while Member States lay down and implement the national penalty rules.

This page helps separate the CRA fine caps from corrective market-surveillance measures, reporting duties, and narrow derogations.

The Cyber Resilience Act does not leave penalty exposure entirely to national law. Article 64 requires Member States to create effective, proportionate, and dissuasive penalty rules, but it also fixes the main administrative fine ceilings for specific CRA infringements. The ceiling depends on the breached obligation, and for undertakings the turnover percentage is compared with the fixed euro amount.

## Article 64 fine ceilings

Article 64 sets maximum administrative fine levels rather than automatic fine amounts. For undertakings, each tier uses the higher of the fixed euro ceiling or the stated percentage of total worldwide annual turnover for the preceding financial year.

The highest tier is tied to the core product-security and manufacturer/reporting duties. The middle tier covers several other economic-operator, conformity-assessment, notified-body, and authority-access obligations. A separate tier covers misleading or incomplete responses to official requests.

- Up to EUR 15,000,000 or 2.5% of worldwide annual turnover for non-compliance with Annex I essential cybersecurity requirements and Articles 13 and 14.
- Up to EUR 10,000,000 or 2% of worldwide annual turnover for non-compliance with Articles 18 to 23, Article 28, Article 30(1) to (4), Article 31(1) to (4), Article 32(1) to (3), Article 33(5), and Articles 39, 41, 47, 49, and 53.
- Up to EUR 5,000,000 or 1% of worldwide annual turnover for supplying incorrect, incomplete, or misleading information to notified bodies or market-surveillance authorities in reply to a request.

## Obligations behind the highest tier

The EUR 15,000,000 or 2.5% ceiling is not a generic cybersecurity penalty. It is linked to Annex I and to Articles 13 and 14, so it reaches product design, vulnerability handling, manufacturer documentation, support-period decisions, user information, and incident or vulnerability reporting.

For a product team, the highest-risk evidence gaps are usually the ones that make it hard to show how the product met Annex I at market placement, how vulnerabilities were handled during the support period, and how Article 14 notifications were assessed and submitted.

- Annex I: essential cybersecurity requirements for product properties and vulnerability handling.
- Article 13: manufacturer obligations, including cybersecurity risk assessment, documentation, support-period logic, vulnerability processes, technical documentation, EU declaration of conformity, CE marking, and user information.
- Article 14: reporting of actively exploited vulnerabilities and severe incidents having an impact on product security.

## Member State penalty rules and fine amounts

Member States must lay down the penalty rules and make sure they are implemented. That means national law still determines the institutional and procedural setup, including whether courts or other national bodies impose the fines.

Article 64 does not set an automatic amount for a given defect. Authorities must consider all relevant circumstances in the specific case, including the nature, gravity, duration, and consequences of the infringement, previous similar administrative fines against the same operator, and the operator's size and market share.

- Public authorities and public bodies are handled by national rules on whether and to what extent administrative fines can be imposed on them.
- Where several market-surveillance authorities are involved, earlier similar fines must be considered and applied fines are communicated through the Union market-surveillance information system.
- Microenterprises, small and medium-sized enterprises, and start-ups are expressly relevant to proportionality when the amount is set.

## Market-surveillance consequences beyond fines

CRA enforcement is not limited to money penalties. Market-surveillance authorities can evaluate products with digital elements where there is sufficient reason to consider that the product, including its vulnerability handling, presents a significant cybersecurity risk.

If the authority finds non-compliance, it can require corrective action, withdrawal, or recall. If adequate corrective action is not taken, it can prohibit, restrict, withdraw, or recall the product from the national market. Article 64 also allows administrative fines to be imposed in addition to corrective or restrictive measures for the same infringement.

- Article 53 access requests can cover data needed to assess design, development, production, and vulnerability handling, including related internal documentation.
- Article 54 procedures can lead to corrective action, withdrawal, recall, or provisional restrictions for products presenting a significant cybersecurity risk.
- Article 58 formal non-compliance covers issues such as missing or incorrect CE marking, missing or incorrect EU declaration of conformity, missing notified-body identification where required, and unavailable or incomplete technical documentation.

## Narrow derogations and what not to assume

Article 64 includes narrow derogations. The corrected CRA text excludes Article 64 administrative fines for microenterprise and small-enterprise manufacturers only for failure to meet the 24-hour early-warning deadline in Article 14(2)(a) or Article 14(4)(a). It also excludes Article 64 administrative fines for infringements by open-source software stewards.

Those derogations should not be read as a general exclusion from CRA supervision. Market-surveillance authorities remain responsible for CRA market surveillance, including supervision of open-source software steward obligations and corrective action where those obligations are not met.

- Do not treat the micro or small enterprise derogation as a blanket exemption from Article 14 or other CRA duties.
- Do not treat the steward derogation as permission to ignore Article 24 obligations or market-surveillance corrective action.
- Do not invent national fine schedules before the relevant Member State has implemented and published its penalty rules.

## Evidence to prepare before an authority asks

The CRA source text does not say that keeping evidence prevents a fine. It does, however, make documentation, cooperation, authority access, and case-specific circumstances central to enforcement.

The useful preparation is therefore concrete: keep records that connect the product, the breached or satisfied obligation, the support-period and vulnerability-handling process, the authority request, and any corrective action taken.

- Annex I traceability: cybersecurity risk assessment, essential-requirement mapping, test evidence, and vulnerability-handling records.
- Article 13 records: technical documentation, EU declaration of conformity history, CE-marking basis, support-period rationale, user information, contact point, and update availability records.
- Article 14 records: awareness timestamps, vulnerability or incident classification, notification submissions, user communications, remediation decisions, and follow-up actions.
- Authority-response records: copies of requests, supplied information, internal documentation reviewed, translations if needed, and checks that responses were complete and not misleading.

## Check CRA penalty exposure against product and reporting evidence

Use Research Copilot to review which CRA obligations are implicated by a product issue, authority request, vulnerability report, or incident timeline, with citations back to the source text.

- [Open Research Copilot](/solutions/research-copilot.md): Ask cited questions about Article 64, market-surveillance measures, and the records needed for a specific CRA issue.
- [Discuss CRA enforcement readiness](/contact.md): Review product-security, vulnerability-handling, reporting, and authority-response evidence for products with digital elements.
