How to do it

The revised eIDAS Regulation, (EU) 2024/1183, makes each EU country offer at least one wallet. The deadline is 24 months after the wallet implementing acts took effect, which falls in late 2026. Private relying parties that must use strong user authentication by law, such as banks, energy, health and telecoms, must accept it on request. So must very large online platforms, for sign-in. That duty applies 36 months after the implementing acts, in late 2027. Micro and small enterprises are exempt from that duty. Register as a relying party with your country before you integrate. Plan it with your sign-in work.

How to check

The obligations register has an eudi_wallet entry with a decision and, when it applies, a date that appears in the compliance calendar.
