The European Accessibility Act (EAA) is a new directive that is designed to establish a common set of accessibility rules for software, digital services, and hardware sold or used in the EU. The Act will come into force on 28 June 2025.
What products and services are covered by the EAA?
The EAA covers a wide range of products and services, including:
- Information and communication technology (ICT) products and services, such as computers, smartphones, and websites
- Public transport services
- Banking services
- E-commerce services
What are the minimum accessibility requirements?
The EAA sets out a set of minimum accessibility requirements that all products and services must meet. These requirements are based on the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, a set of internationally recognized standards for web accessibility.
