Stay informed about digital identity verification, eIDAS compliance, and best practices for European businesses.
The EU age-verification app hands your service a signed boolean in the namespace eu.europa.ec.av.1 — but a boolean is only as trustworthy as who signed it. Here is what that namespace contains, and exactly how a verifier proves the attestation is genuine using the Age Verification Trusted List.
On 21 May 2026 the EUDI Wallet Architecture and Reference Framework reached version 2.9.0, and with it Topic X — Relying Party Registration — moved to 'Final'. This is the technical layer beneath the WRPAC obligation: the high-level requirements that define how a relying party is authenticated, what it must declare, and how that declaration ties to a Wallet-Relying Party Access Certificate.
The EU age-verification verifier guide is unambiguous: your verifier must support two presentation mechanisms and select the best one at runtime. DC API is primary, OpenID4VP is the fallback. Get the fallback matrix wrong and a slice of your users silently fail the age gate.
A researcher claimed the EU age verification app can be bypassed in 2 minutes. What actually happened — and what merchants and verifiers should really worry about.
A step-by-step tutorial to install the OpenEUDI SDK, create a verification session, and handle the result — all in under 5 minutes using DEMO mode.
We're open-sourcing the core verification protocol library that powers eIDAS Pro. OpenEUDI is a free, MIT-licensed TypeScript SDK for integrating EUDI Wallet verification into any web application.
A technical deep dive into OpenID4VP — the verification protocol that EUDI Wallets use to share verified attributes with businesses. How it works, why it matters, and how OpenEUDI implements it.
A comprehensive technical breakdown of the eIDAS verification flow, from QR code generation to attribute validation, covering protocols, security measures, and integration patterns.
