Ready for the European Accessibility Act

As of 28 June 2025, the European Accessibility Act (EAA) requires that all new digital products meet specific standards to be legally sold or procured in the EU. With 87 million Europeans now living with a disability, inclusion is more imperative than ever.

ViewSonic believes technology should empower every learner, every worker, every customer. That’s why we’ve designed accessibility into our products from day one.

About the EAA

The European Accessibility Act, Directive (EU) 2019/882, was adopted in 2019 and is now enforceable. It defines clear requirements for hardware, software, websites, and apps across the EU, with compliance checked in a few key ways:

The Declaration of Conformity and CE marking reflect EAA-related standards.

Testing against the EN 301 549 and WCAG 2.1 standards verifies compliance.

Local authorities can conduct checks and investigate consumer complaints.

Why the EAA Matters

Accessibility is not just a legal requirement. It also shows a commitment to inclusion. Choosing EAA-ready solutions protects users, builds trust, and reduces risk. Non-compliant products may be excluded from procurement or withdrawn from the market.

ViewSonic encourages public buyers to check beyond CE marking and request full VPAT documentation proving conformance with the EN 301 549 accessibility standard.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is the European Accessibility Act?

    The European Accessibility Act (EAA) is an EU directive that requires many products meet accessibility standards in order to be legally placed on the market. It ensures that digital tools, hardware, and software can be used by people of all abilities. ViewSonic aligns its solutions with these standards across Europe.

  • When did the EAA take effect?

    The EAA became fully enforceable on June 28, 2025. As of that date, products and services covered by the directive must meet accessibility requirements before being sold or procured in Europe. ViewSonic’s EAA-ready portfolio, which is designed with accessibility in mind, ensures both compliance with the law and readiness for evolving accessibility standards.

  • Who must comply with the EAA?

    Manufacturers, importers, distributors, and service providers operating in the EU or serving the EU market all have responsibilities under the EAA. ViewSonic supports partners, resellers, and organisations in meeting these requirements with certified, documented solutions.

  • What happens if a product does not meet EAA requirements?

    Products that do not comply may face sales restrictions, penalties, or removal from the EU market. Working with EAA-ready vendors like ViewSonic helps prevent these risks through verified accessibility documentation.

  • What is the difference between the EAA and EN 301 549?

    The European Accessibility Act sets the legal framework for accessibility in the EU, while EN 301 549 defines the technical standards used to meet those requirements. ViewSonic designs and tests its solutions according to EN 301 549 and related guidelines to ensure full EAA compliance.

  • What is a VPAT?

    A Voluntary Product Accessibility Template is a document that explains how a product meets accessibility requirements.

  • How does accessibility affect procurement?

    Public and private buyers across Europe must now verify that products meet accessibility requirements before purchase. ViewSonic helps streamline this process by offering transparent documentation and EAA-ready product lines.

  • Why is accessibility important beyond compliance?

    Accessibility improves usability, inclusion, and user experience for everyone, not only for people with disabilities. ViewSonic integrates accessibility into its design philosophy to make technology more adaptable and intuitive.

  • How can I check if a product is EAA-ready?

    First check for the CE marking that verifies a product carries a Declaration of Conformity. It is recommended to also request a VPAT as supporting documentation that shows how a product conforms with the EN 301 549 standard. You can review detailed accessibility documentation for ViewSonic’s products at our VPAT library or contact a ViewSonic representative for product-specific information.

  • How does ViewSonic ensure ongoing accessibility?

    ViewSonic products are built to be accessible before they ever hit the market, but accessibility is a continuous process. ViewSonic regularly tests and updates products against changing standards and user feedback to maintain long-term compliance and inclusivity.
