Understanding EAA Website Compliance and its Risks

First, we need to address a common misunderstanding: The EAA isn’t a single law. It’s a set of harmonized technical standards, which are intended to ensure that all of the EU members have the same requirements for public-facing websites.

A few quick examples: 

  • Germany: German accessibility laws allow for administrative face fines of up to €100,000 per violation. 

  • France: Fines for non-compliance laws such as the Référentiel Général d’Accessibilité pour les Administrations (RGAA) can reach €250,000.

  • Sweden: The Swedish Agency for Digital Government can penalize organizations that fail to meet accessibility requirements with up to 10,000,000 Swedish kronor.
