When it applies

3 dates carry an obligation in this collection, all of them now in force. Dates are taken from each obligation's own applicability column rather than restated here, so this page and the provision pages cannot disagree. Where a date is not self-explanatory — a transitional provision, a deferred application, a later amendment moving it — the reason is recorded against it.

   • IMDA Agentic AI Framework v1.5 §2.1 — Assess and bound the risks upfront

     Version 1.0, launched at Davos. A publication date rather than a compliance deadline: there is no obligation here to transition to, and no transition period, because the framework creates no duty.

   • Model AI Governance Framework for Agentic AI v1.5, §§2.1.2 and 2.3.1 — Bound risks through design by defining agents limits and permissions

     Version 1.0 of the Model AI Governance Framework for Agentic AI, launched at Davos. Not an application date — the framework recommends and nothing attaches to an organisation that does not follow it.

   • Model AI Governance Framework for Agentic AI v1.5, §2.3.2 — Before deploying, test agents

     Version 1.0 of the Model AI Governance Framework for Agentic AI, launched at Davos. Not an application date — the framework recommends and nothing attaches to an organisation that does not follow it.

2. 31 January 2026

   • MAS Consultation Paper P017-2025 — Consultation Paper on Guidelines on Artificial Intelligence Risk Management

     The date the consultation closed. It is not an application date and there is no application date: the Guidelines are not finalised, and the twelve-month transition after issuance discussed in the consultation paper is a proposal put to respondents, not a period running.

   • IMDA Agentic AI Framework v1.5 §2.1 — Assess and bound the risks upfront

     Version 1.5, updated 5 June 2026, and the version to cite: system complexity was added to the likelihood factors here, and §1.2.3 did not exist in version 1.0. A publication date again, and nothing follows for an organisation that ignores it.

   • IMDA Agentic AI Framework v1.5 §2.1.1 and §2.2.2 — Reversibility of agent’s actions

     The date version 1.5 published, updated 5 June 2026. It is a publication date, not a compliance date: the framework recommends gating and no instrument requires it, so nothing is owed from this day or any other.

   • IMDA Agentic AI Framework v1.5 §2.3.3 — Continuous testing and monitoring

     The date version 1.5 published, updated 5 June 2026. A publication date and not a deadline — the framework recommends, and nothing is owed from this or any other date. Version discipline matters here because sections were added between 1.0 and 1.5.

   • Model AI Governance Framework for Agentic AI v1.5, §§2.1.2 and 2.3.1 — Bound risks through design by defining agents limits and permissions

     Version 1.5, published 20 May 2026 and updated 5 June 2026. The current edition, and the one to cite: it separates platform providers from system providers, adds automation-bias practices and change management, and introduces the section on systemic and multi-agent risks.

   • Model AI Governance Framework for Agentic AI v1.5, §2.3.2 — Before deploying, test agents

     Version 1.5, published 20 May 2026 and updated 5 June 2026. The current edition, and the one to cite: it separates platform providers from system providers, adds automation-bias practices and change management, and introduces the section on systemic and multi-agent risks.
