What does the European Accessibility Act cover, who must comply and why?
Accessibility for Information Technology Equipment (ITE) is no longer a “nice to have” function in the European Union. With Directive (EU) 2019/882, better known as the European Accessibility Act (EAA), accessibility has become a mandatory legal requirement across the EU market. This act shall be without prejudice to directive (EU) 2017/1564 and regulation (EU) 2017/1563.
