The European Accessibility Act (EAA) 2025: A New Era of Inclusive Design

In 2025, the European Accessibility Act (EAA) will come into force, marking a significant step towards a barrier-free Europe. At ENNOstudio, we believe this Act is not just a regulatory requirement but also an opportunity to develop innovative and inclusive design solutions that benefit all users.

What the European Accessibility Act is all about

The EAA is an EU directive aimed at removing barriers for people with disabilities and improving the accessibility of products and services. It covers areas such as information technology, transport, and financial services. Companies operating in the EU must ensure their offerings meet these new accessibility standards to avoid legal penalties.

Areas of application for digital services and products

Here are some of the areas of application for digital services and products under the accessibility regulations:

• Websites
• Mobile Applications
• Software Applications
• Electronic Documents
• Online Multimedia Content
• E-commerce Accessibility

In essence, digital services and products must adhere to accessibility standards to ensure they are usable by individuals with various disabilities, promoting equal access to information and services online.
