Commission issues new risk management requirements under an expanded EUDI framework

On June 23, 2025, the European Commission released three new Implementing Acts for public consultation under Regulation (EU) 2024/1183, expanding the European Digital Identity Wallet (EUDI) framework established through the amended eIDAS Regulation. The proposed measures focus on strengthening the trust framework that underpins wallet interoperability and certification across Member States. Specifically, the acts address (1) updated standards for national “trusted lists” of qualified trust-service providers (TSPs); (2) harmonized accreditation procedures for conformity assessment bodies (CABs) that evaluate EUDI-related services; and (3) new risk management obligations for non-qualified trust-service providers. The consultation period remains open through July 18, 2025.

These new proposals build on the five Implementing Acts adopted in November 2024, which established the wallet’s core technical specifications, certification protocols, and data-protection safeguards. Together, they complete the operational architecture needed for Member States to issue at least one compliant EUDI Wallet by late 2026 and prepare for mandatory private-sector acceptance by 2027. The Commission’s June 2025 actions signal a move from policy development to technical enforcement, ensuring consistent supervision, interoperability, and trust across the EU’s emerging digital identity infrastructure.
