Free EAA Compliance Checker: Scan Your Website in 30 Seconds
The European Accessibility Act is now law. Since 28 June 2025, businesses selling to EU customers must meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards on their websites. Non-compliance means fines, legal action, and lost customers.
But how do you know if your website complies? Most business owners have no idea where they stand.
Check Your EAA Compliance Right Now
Our free EAA compliance checker scans your website against 17 WCAG 2.1 criteria and gives you an instant score from A (excellent) to F (critical problems).
It takes 30 seconds. No sign-up required. Just paste your URL and get your result.
What the Scanner Checks
The scanner tests the key areas that the EAA and WCAG 2.1 require:
- Language declaration — is your page language set correctly? (WCAG 3.1.1)
- Page titles — does every page have a descriptive title? (WCAG 2.4.2)
- Image alt text — can screen readers describe your images? (WCAG 1.1.1)
- Link text — are all links meaningful, not just "click here"? (WCAG 2.4.4)
- Heading structure — do headings follow a logical order? (WCAG 1.3.1)
- Colour contrast — can people with low vision read your text? (WCAG 1.4.3)
- Form labels — are form fields properly labelled? (WCAG 1.3.1)
- Keyboard navigation — can users navigate without a mouse? (WCAG 2.1.1)
- Landmarks and structure — can assistive technology find page sections? (WCAG 1.3.1)
Who Needs to Comply with the EAA?
The European Accessibility Act applies to:
- E-commerce websites selling to EU consumers
- Banking and financial services
- Telecommunications providers
- Transport and travel booking services
- E-books and publishing platforms
- Any UK business selling products or services to customers in the EU
Even if the EAA doesn't directly apply to you, the UK Equality Act 2010 already requires reasonable adjustments for disabled users. An inaccessible website is a legal liability.
What Happens If You Score Badly?
If your website scores D or F, you have significant accessibility problems. This means:
- Disabled users cannot use your website properly
- You may be breaking the law under the EAA or Equality Act
- You are losing customers who cannot complete purchases
- You are vulnerable to complaints and legal action
The good news: most issues are straightforward to fix. Our scanner tells you exactly what is wrong and how to fix it.
