On 3 June 2021, the Commission adopted a Recommendation calling on Member States to work towards the development of a Toolbox including a technical Architecture and Reference Framework (ARF), a set of common standards and technical specifications and a set of common guidelines and best practice.
The Recommendation specifies that these outcomes will serve as a basis for the implementation of the European Digital Identity Framework Regulation once adopted, without the process of developing the Toolbox interfering or prejudging the legislative process.
The present outline provides a summary description of the eIDAS expert group’s understanding of the EUDI Wallet concept including:
- objectives of the EUDI Wallet,
- roles of the actors of the ecosystem,
- wallet’s functional and non-functional requirements and
- potential building blocks.
The outline is non-mandatory. Only the finally adopted European Digital Identity Framework Regulation, and the implementing and delegated acts adopted under that legal basis, will be mandatory.
