Views sought on European Accessibility Act guidelines for microenterprises
Reading time: 1 minute
The Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (CCPC) is inviting feedback on guidelines for microenterprises on their obligations under the new European Accessibility Act (EAA).
The EEA enters into Irish law on 28 June 2025 and aims to increase the accessibility of a range of products and services across the EU, with benefits for consumers and businesses.
Under the EAA, the CCPC will be responsible for enforcing compliance with accessibility requirements for digital products, e-commerce services and e-books.
To prepare for the entry into force of the EAA, the CCPC has worked with the National Disability Authority (NDA) to develop guidelines for microenterprises on their accessibility obligations.
The draft guidelines have now been published as part of a public consultation which seeks feedback from businesses, industry bodies, disabled persons’ organisations and consumers.
The consultation is open for feedback until 25 April 2025.
