Digital accessibility is about ensuring that everyone, regardless of physical or cognitive abilities, can use your digital service. Esatto can help design and build accessible services, or make an accessibility review of your existing website.

Why is digital accessibility important?

Accessible digital services are designed and developed so that everyone can use them. This includes people with physical or cognitive challenges who must be able to navigate, understand the content, and complete tasks. According to the Swedish Myndigheten för delaktighet, as many as one-third of the population may live with a disability. These are potential users and customers you risk excluding if your digital services aren't accessible.

When is digital accessibility required?

Since 2019, the Swedish law on accessibility to digital public services (DOS law) has required public sector organizations to ensure that their websites, apps, and digital documents are accessible to all. The legal accessibility requirements state that digital services must be:

  • Perceivable
  • Operable
  • Understandable
  • Robust

Upcoming Changes: Extended Accessibility Requirements in 2025

From June 28, 2025, new EU regulations will take effect under the European Accessibility Act (EAA). If you offer digital services or products, this means that your websites, apps, e-commerce solutions, and e-books must be accessible to everyone. Requirements include:

  • Clear and readable information
  • Keyboard navigation and compatibility with assistive technologies
  • Accessible payment and customer support features

The legislation will apply to sectors such as banking, transport, e-commerce, and media.

Benefits of Digital Accessibility


Better for everyone – including your business.

An accessible website isn’t just for people with disabilities – it makes the experience easier, faster, and smoother for all users. That means happier visitors, better visibility in search engines, and a brand that communicates responsibility and care. In short: accessibility isn’t just the right thing to do – it’s smart business.
