European Accessibility Act (EAA) 2025 – Make Your E-Commerce Accessible for Everyone

As of June 28, 2025, many e-commerce companies will be required to ensure that their digital services are accessible to all users under the European Union’s new accessibility directive, the European Accessibility Act (EAA). This directive mandates that digital services must be usable by everyone, regardless of individual abilities, covering users with visual, auditory, or cognitive impairments, among others. However, EAA does exempt micro-enterprises — companies with fewer than 10 employees or annual revenue under 2 million euros — from these requirements.

Accessible E-Commerce Adds Value for All Customers

Creating an accessible web shop is not only about meeting legal requirements; it also enhances the experience for all visitors. By adapting your e-commerce site according to EAA guidelines, you can reach a broader customer base, build a more inclusive user experience, and strengthen your brand. Additionally, these improvements often boost your visibility in search engines, attracting more traffic to your site.
