# Does the EU require a post-quantum migration plan?

Commission Recommendation (EU) 2024/1101 of 11 April 2024 asked Member States to coordinate the transition, and the NIS Cooperation Group published a coordinated roadmap on 23 June 2025: start the transition, protect high-risk use cases by the end of 2030 and move as many systems as feasible by 2035. It is a roadmap for Member States, not a law that binds your company directly; national authorities may turn it into guidance or rules. Its first practical step is knowing where you use cryptography.
