MSR enforcement is continuous, but the Regulation and the current Commission implementation material give you a small set of dates that matter operationally: early application of the cooperation and network structure, general application from 16 July 2021, penalty-notification timing, annual customs statistics and Commission reporting, and the later Commission follow-up on Article 4 implementation.
The Regulation applies from 16 July 2021, but Articles 29, 30, 31, 32, 33 and 36 applied earlier from 1 January 2021. Those earlier articles matter because they cover the Network, ADCOs, Commission support, and financing.
Treat 1 January 2021 as the start of the coordinated-enforcement layer and 16 July 2021 as the point when the core operator and channel obligations became generally live.
Article 41 required Member States to notify penalty rules by 16 October 2021. Article 25 adds a yearly customs-reporting cycle that is easy to miss but useful for understanding enforcement focus.
These are the dates that show the Regulation is not static: Member States, customs authorities, and the Commission keep feeding the system.

Article 42(3) set a 16 July 2023 deadline for the Commission report on Article 4 implementation. The official implementation report was published in 2025 and now gives the best current high-level view of how Article 4 worked in practice from 2021 to 2023.
