The EU Space Act legislative proposal aims to establish a harmonised legal framework for space activities across the European Union.
This regulation seeks to unify fragmented national space laws to enhance EU competitiveness, safety, security, and sustainability in space operations. The Act includes 119 articles and 10 annexes, with implementation planned for January 1, 2030, following a two-year transitional period. It focuses on fostering innovation, resilience, and environmental protection in the space sector, while addressing challenges related to legal certainty and institutional competences.
