Overview
How the EUDI Wallet works: the technology explained simply
An issuer such as a government authority signs a credential and binds it to your wallet. When a company requests data, it must authenticate itself with a certificate; you share only the attributes needed, and the company verifies the signature itself – without the issuer finding out.
Overview
What is the EU Digital Identity Wallet?
The EU Digital Identity Wallet (EUDI Wallet) is an app in which people store their identity data and credentials such as a driving licence and share only what is needed. Every EU member state must offer at least one wallet, calculated to be by 24 December 2026. Use is voluntary and free for citizens; as of 12 October 2026 the Eudigo index lists no certified wallet in any member state.
Overview
Which businesses must accept the EUDI Wallet, and from when?
Under Article 5f of the eIDAS Regulation, private relying parties that are required by law or contract to use strong user authentication for online identification must accept the EUDI Wallet at the user's request – in areas such as banking, financial services, energy, telecommunications, health and transport – by 24 December 2027 at the latest (calculated). Micro and small enterprises are exempt; very large online platforms are covered.
Overview
EUDI Wallet deadlines 2026 and 2027: all key dates
By 24 December 2026 every EU member state must provide at least one EUDI Wallet, and from the same day national registers of wallet-relying parties must be public via a common API. Private companies in regulated sectors must accept the wallet by 24 December 2027 at the latest; micro and small enterprises are exempt. The wallet and acceptance deadlines are calculated from the legal text; the register date is stated in the implementing regulation. National launch dates vary and are announcements, not legal deadlines.
Overview
Which EUDI Wallets exist in the EU Member States?
Every Member State must provide at least one EUDI Wallet by 24 December 2026 (calculated). As of 12 October 2026, we found no certified wallet. Seven countries run an ID app that is officially set to become the EUDI Wallet (CY, DK, EL, FR, IT, PL, SK), one is testing publicly (IE), four have confirmed upgrades of existing apps, fourteen have announced a wallet and one remains unclear.
How-to
How do organisations register as a wallet-relying party?
Organisations register as a wallet-relying party with the registrar of the member state where they are established. They provide company data, identifiers and, for each intended use, the data requested and its purpose. After registration they receive an access certificate and a registration certificate. The registers become public, with a common API, from 24 December 2026.
Guide
Access certificate: what it is, who issues it and how it is renewed
The wallet-relying party access certificate (WRPAC) is a certificate for electronic seals or signatures that a registered relying party presents to the EUDI Wallet with every request. It is issued only after registration, by a provider that each Member State must authorise (Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/848, Art. 7). The Commission's list of these providers had not been published as of 12 October 2026.
Guide
Does the EUDI Wallet acceptance obligation apply to small businesses?
No. Micro and small enterprises as defined in Commission Recommendation 2003/361/EC – fewer than 50 staff and an annual turnover or balance sheet total of no more than EUR 10 million – are exempt from the obligation for private businesses under Article 5f(2) eIDAS. Medium-sized enterprises are not. Small businesses may still use the wallet voluntarily, but must then register as relying parties.

EUDI Wallet for AML and KYC: what banks and obliged entities need to know
Yes: the EUDI Wallet is an electronic identification means at assurance level high and fits customer identification under AML rules. From 10 July 2027 the EU Anti-Money Laundering Regulation (AMLR) expressly allows electronic identification means at level substantial or high. Banks and financial services that require strong user authentication must accept the wallet on the user's request by the end of 2027.

The portrait in the EUDI Wallet: what applies from August 2028
From 11 August 2028 the portrait becomes mandatory person identification data (PID) in the EUDI Wallet, unless the member state lets users opt out. When a relying party requests it, the wallet warns that biometric data is being shared and requires explicit confirmation. Relying parties may only retain the portrait where identification under data protection law requires it or where the law provides for it (Implementing Regulation (EU) 2026/1731).
Guide
What data may a relying party request from the EUDI Wallet?
A relying party may only request from the EUDI Wallet the data it registered for the intended use (Art. 5b(3) eIDAS). There is no pre-authorisation, but the wallet checks each request against the registration certificate and warns the user about anything outside it. Requesting more than registered can lead to suspension of the registration. The GDPR applies on top: even registered data may only be requested where it is necessary for the purpose.
Guide
What is a wallet-relying party?
A wallet-relying party is any organisation that identifies users or checks attestations through the EUDI Wallet, such as a bank, an online shop or a public authority. It must first register in the member state where it is established and may only request the data it has registered.
