Overview

What is EAA?

The European Accessibility Act (EAA), formally Directive (EU) 2019/882, harmonizes accessibility requirements across all 27 EU member states. It covers a broad range of digital products and services including e-commerce, banking, e-books, transport ticketing, and consumer electronics. The technical standard referenced is EN 301 549, which itself references WCAG 2.1 Level AA for web content. Enforcement began on June 28, 2025, and each EU member state has implemented its own penalties for non-compliance. The law applies to any business selling to EU consumers, regardless of where the business is headquartered.
