Headquarters evidence
The European AI Office was established within the European Commission as the foundation for a single AI governance system.
The Commission's own policy page states the AI Office was established within the European Commission. It is an internal Commission service, not a separate legal person, so a headquarters designation is structurally not applicable rather than merely unknown.
Evidence boundaries
Organisation listings identify a reviewed canonical record. Headquarters is independent of incorporation, registered offices, ownership, hosting and runtime. Model listings show an association in the source register; they do not by themselves establish model creation, current API availability, hosting location or infrastructure ownership.
