Selling to the EU and Accessibility
What accessibility rules apply when selling to the EU? The European Accessibility Act, via EN 301 549 and WCAG, applies to consumer-facing products and services offered in the EU. A WCAG 2.2 AA implementation keeps you on the safe side.
questions
Frequently asked
Does this cover online stores?
Yes; consumer-facing e-commerce is squarely in scope, so checkout, product pages and forms must meet WCAG 2.2 AA.
Is a translated site enough?
No; each market has its own legal requirements, a translation alone does not make a site compliant per market.
