Is it possible to navigate your website using only a keyboard? Under the European Accessibility Act 2025 (EAA 2025), ensuring that your website is navigable via keyboard isn’t just good practice—it’s essential. Keyboard accessibility is just the beginning of creating an inclusive online space. Here are some key areas covered by EAA 2025: Digital Accessibility: Companies falling under EAA must ensure that their websites and digital services comply with the WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines). This includes features such as text-to-speech functionality, contrast ratios, easy navigation, and screen reader accessibility. Audiovisual Media: Companies producing or providing services related to TV equipment or streaming must include accessibility features like audio descriptions and subtitles. Bank Accessibility: One of the driving principles of EAA 2025 is simple and independent financial management for people with disabilities. This means that both digital and physical banking services need to be updated for accessibility. For example, ATMs must have audio assistance to help visually impaired users operate them smoothly. Following these guidelines is not only good practice but also necessary to create an inclusive online environment. If you’d like to learn more about improving accessibility and staying ahead of compliance, explore the available resources. Hashtags like #keyboardaccessibility and #digitalInclusion are also useful for finding additional information and community discussions on the topic.
