2. They shall apply the measures referred to in paragraph 1 from 30 December 2023.
By way of derogation from the first subparagraph, entities already carrying out in accordance with national law credit servicing activities on 30 December 2023 shall be allowed to continue carrying out those credit servicing activities in their home Member State until 29 June 2024 or until the date on which they obtain an authorisation in accordance with this Directive, whichever is the earlier.
Member States that already have in place regimes that are equivalent to, or stricter than, those established in this Directive for credit servicing activities may allow entities already carrying out credit servicing activities under those regimes on 30 December 2023 to be automatically recognised as authorised credit servicers by the national provisions transposing this Directive.
