FAQ about the European Accessibility Act
When did the European Accessibility Act start to apply?
The European Accessibility Act (Directive (EU) 2019/882) applies from 28 June 2025. It covers, among other things, e-commerce services offered to consumers in the EU, implemented by each member state in national law.
Does the EAA apply to small businesses?
Microenterprises providing services – fewer than 10 employees and an annual turnover or balance sheet total of no more than EUR 2 million – are exempt from the requirements for services. Larger businesses selling online to consumers in the EU need to meet them.
What does the Quick Check test?
Features in the HTML of a page that can be detected automatically: page language, page title, disabled zoom, images without alt text, unlabelled form fields, links and buttons without names, headings, iframes without titles, autoplay, tab order, skip link, and whether a link to accessibility information is present.
Does the Quick Check replace a full audit or legal advice?
No. Automated tests find only part of the issues. Contrast, keyboard operation and understandable error messages need manual testing – the kit includes a checklist for that. Legal questions belong with a lawyer.
Which standard is used?
In practice the harmonised European standard EN 301 549 is used, which refers to WCAG at level AA for web content.
