Keeping track of the different digital accessibility laws in different nations and countries is difficult. But the good news is material compliance usually comes down to conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG).
WCAG 2.2 is the latest version but WCAG 2.1 is incorporated into most laws. Conformance level AA is the referenced level for compliance.
Some notable digital accessibility laws include:
European Accessibility Act (EAA)
Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA)
Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act
