Italian public and private websites must publish an accessibility statement by 23 September

To submit the statement, public bodies must exclusively use the online form made available by the Agency for Digital Italy (AgID).

Private organisations, companies and individuals must use a template in which they must indicate the compliance status of their websites or applications as well as any inaccessible content, instructions on how to report accessibility issues and other relevant information.

The declaration must be available via links on the footer of websites or in the general information section of mobile applications stores or on the provider’s website.

The accessibility statement annual update, in addition to being a legal obligation, is a useful opportunity to take stock of the issue of accessibility, by reviewing sites and applications to ensure that digital services are accessible to all.
