What it requires

  • If you use an AI system to make a decision about a person in El Salvador without meaningful human review, and it negatively affects their health, financial services, employment, education, government benefits, housing or transportation, notify them.NIST AI RMFMEASURE 2.8
  • In that notification, confirm that AI was involved, explain the role it played, and give the person a way to challenge the decision.NIST AI RMFMEASURE 2.8NIST AI RMFMEASURE 3.3
  • This notification duty does not apply where disclosure would undermine fraud detection or cybersecurity, where the system supports law enforcement or national-security functions, or where the AI's role is limited to content recommendation, search results, ad optimization, or basic spellcheck or grammar assistance.

These lines are LexLint's reading of the law's text.

  • MEASURE 3.3Feedback processes for end users and impacted communities to report problems and appeal system outcomes are established and integrated into AI system evaluation metrics.

Logging duty

Article 24 never uses the words log, record, or audit trail, but the notification it requires must at minimum confirm that AI was involved, explain the role it played, and provide a mechanism to challenge the decision, which cannot be done without a record of what the decision was, so the duty is implicit.

Research summary

Legal information, not legal advice. This is LexLint's own research summary of a public legal source, and it creates no attorney-client relationship. For decisions that matter, consult qualified counsel in the relevant jurisdiction. About LexLint

Article 24 requires any entity using an AI system to make a decision affecting a person in El Salvador to notify them, independent of whether the entity is subject to registration, whenever the decision was made without meaningful human review and negatively affects the person's rights or economic situation in health, financial services, employment, education, government benefits, housing, or transportation.

The notification must be clear and understandable and must at minimum confirm that AI was involved, explain the role it played, and provide a mechanism to challenge the decision. Article 25 exempts the duty where disclosure would undermine fraud detection or cybersecurity, support law enforcement or national-security functions, or where the AI's role is limited to content recommendation, search results, advertising optimization, or basic spellcheck and grammar assistance.

Article 30 provides the resolution takes effect eight days after publication in the Diario Oficial, and no official source stating the day it came into force has been located.
