What is the European Accessibility Act (EAA)?


The European Accessibility Act (EAA) - Directive (EU) 2019/882 - aims to break down digital barriers for people with disabilities and the elderly across Europe.

Starting June 28, 2025, companies must ensure their products and services conform to EN 301 549, which refences the globally recognised WCAG 2.1 Level AA accessibility standard.

WCAG is build around for essential principles:

Perceivability

Content must be presented in ways
all users can perceive

Operability

Users must be able to interact with all
controls and components

Understandability

Interfaces must be easy to understand
and predict

Robustness

Content must work reliably across devices
and assistive tech

If your digital experience is accessible in the EU, it must comply with EAA standards
