Article 15 PRESUMPTION OF CONFORMITY: products and services which comply with harmonised standards or parts thereof, the references of which have been published in the OJEU, shall be presumed to be in conformity with the accessibility requirements of this Directive in so far as those standards or parts thereof cover those requirements (Article 15(1)). The harmonised standard for the EAA is EN 301 549 - the SAME harmonised standard that is the technical-conformance bar under the WAD (Directive 2016/2102). Article 15(2) where harmonised standards do not exist the Commission may adopt implementing acts establishing technical specifications providing presumption of conformity. The current Commission Implementing Decisions citing EN 301 549 v3.2.1 (and the v4.x development pipeline aligning with WCAG 2.2 + IT and ICT) establish the presumption of conformity for both EAA-in-scope products + services and WAD-in-scope public-sector websites + mobile applications. Compliance with EN 301 549 + applicable technical specifications is therefore the operational backbone of EAA Article 4 + Annex I.
This control maps to 7 controls across 2 other frameworks. If you already hold one of them, the evidence you collected for it is the starting point here rather than new work.
Every mapping shown was judged rather than inferred from wording similarity, and the ones that failed review are published too. See the coverage reports and what was rejected.
The graph holds this control, the 7 it maps to, and the evidence behind each claim, over MCP and REST.
