Europe’s vision for the future of digital identity is taking shape through the European Digital Identity Wallet — a framework that places citizens at the center of trust and data control.
Designed under eIDAS 2.0, the wallet enables individuals and organizations to share verified credentials across borders in a secure and privacy-preserving way. A wallet becomes a digital container for verifiable credentials — from ID cards and driving licenses to diplomas and professional certificates.
Interoperability is enabled through open standards like ISO 18013-5, W3C Verifiable Credentials, and OpenID for Verifiable Credential Issuance. This composable approach allows governments and enterprises to build compatible wallets and services without locking themselves into a single technology stack.
