Digital Identity for all Europeans
The European Digital Identity will be available to EU citizens, residents, and businesses who want to identify themselves or provide confirmation of certain personal information. It can be used for both online and offline public and private services across the EU.
Every EU citizen and resident in the Union will be able to use a personal digital wallet.
The digital wallet can be supplied by the Public authorities and private parties, provided that they are recognised by a Member State, in accordance with the principles of availability and usability.
The European Commission called the Member States establish a common tool within September 2022.
