A Global Look at Digital Identity Wallets
The European Union may be at the forefront with its European Digital Identity (EUDI) Wallet initiative, but it’s not alone. Countries around the world are developing and deploying digital identity wallet solutions—each tailored to their specific regulatory frameworks, user needs, and levels of digital maturity.
While not comprehensive, it highlights a crucial takeaway: ID wallets are no longer a concept of the future—they’re already reshaping the present.
Europe’s Digital Identity Wallet: A Flagship Initiative
The European Digital Identity Wallet (EUDI Wallet) stands as a cornerstone of the EU’s updated eIDAS 2.0 regulation, formally adopted in 2024.
By 2026, all EU citizens, residents, and businesses will be able to use a digital ID wallet to securely verify their identity and share personal information online with ease and privacy.
To ensure the wallet’s success, large-scale pilots began in April 2023, engaging over 350 organizations across 26 EU Member States, along with Norway, Iceland, and Ukraine. These pilots aim to validate the wallet’s functionality, interoperability, and security. Additional pilots are planned for mid-2025 to further refine and expand the solution.
The question is: “Is Your Business Ready for the Digital ID Revolution?”
As governments rapidly move toward the implementation of digital ID wallets, one thing is certain: it’s no longer a question of if, but when.
For forward-thinking businesses, this evolution presents a strategic advantage. Digital identity wallets will redefine how individuals prove their identity, interact with digital services, and control their personal data.
