What is the EU Digital Identity Wallet?
An app provided by each EU member state under eIDAS 2.0, Regulation (EU) 2024/1183. It holds the person identification data issued by the state and other credentials, and lets the holder share selected data with online services, with their consent.
When does the EUDI Wallet become available?
Every EU member state must offer at least one certified wallet by the end of 2026. Some countries started earlier with pilots; Germany has announced its state wallet for the start of 2027.
Who must accept the EUDI Wallet, and from when?
Public bodies that offer online identification, and from the end of 2027 private services that must identify users strongly by law, such as banks, telecom operators, energy suppliers, transport and health services, as well as very large online platforms, when the user wants to use the wallet.
Does the Aloaha eForms Server support the EUDI Wallet?
Yes. The eForms Server signs people in through www.aloaha.com, which accepts the EU Digital Identity Wallet. Forms can require that sign-in and are then pre-filled with the verified data the person shares.
Which wallet standards does www.aloaha.com support?
OpenID for Verifiable Presentations (OpenID4VP) with DCQL queries, SD-JWT VC and ISO mdoc credentials, following the High Assurance Interoperability Profile and the EU Architecture and Reference Framework. Applications connect with standard OpenID Connect.
Which data does a form receive from the wallet?
Only the data the form asks for and the person approves in the wallet, typically name, date of birth and address. Nothing is shared without consent.
Can people without a wallet still fill in the form?
Yes. They sign in at www.aloaha.com with a passkey or a password instead, or the form is published without required sign-in.
Is the EUDI Wallet the same as a qualified electronic signature?
No, but it includes one: wallet holders can create qualified electronic signatures free of charge for private use. The eForms Server also supports X.509 signature fields for certificates and smart cards.
