# Art. 30 — Voluntary notification of relevant information

NIS2 Article 30 — Voluntary notification of relevant information. Directive (EU) 2022/2555, Chapter VI — Information sharing.

1. Member States shall ensure that, in addition to the notification obligation provided for in [Article 23](/nis2/chapter-iv-cybersecurity-risk-management-measures-and-reporting-obligations-art.-20-25/23.md), notifications can be submitted to the CSIRTs or, where applicable, the competent authorities, on a voluntary basis, by:
   1. essential and important entities with regard to incidents, cyber threats and near misses;
   2. entities other than those referred to in point (a), regardless of whether they fall within the scope of this Directive, with regard to significant incidents, cyber threats and near misses.
2. Member States shall process the notifications referred to in paragraph 1 of this Article in accordance with the procedure laid down in [Article 23](/nis2/chapter-iv-cybersecurity-risk-management-measures-and-reporting-obligations-art.-20-25/23.md). Member States may prioritise the processing of mandatory notifications over voluntary notifications.

   Where necessary, the CSIRTs and, where applicable, the competent authorities shall provide the single points of contact with the information about notifications received pursuant to this Article, while ensuring the confidentiality and appropriate protection of the information provided by the notifying [entity](https://headlesslaw.com/definitions/nis2/entity/). Without prejudice to the prevention, investigation, detection and prosecution of criminal offences, voluntary reporting shall not result in the imposition of any additional obligations upon the notifying entity to which it would not have been subject had it not submitted the notification.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://www.mica.wtf/nis2/chapter-vi-information-sharing-art.-29-30/30.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
