Prepare your website for Italian accessibility law
Italy's Decreto Legislativo 82/2022, layered on top of the Stanca Law (Legge 4/2004), is the national transposition of the European Accessibility Act. AgID publishes the technical guidance; UNI CEI EN 301 549 and WCAG 2.1 AA define the conformance bar. Enforcement is intensifying from 2025 onward.

Italy has had accessibility law since 2004 — and just expanded it
Italy was an early mover with the Stanca Law (Legge 4/2004) covering public-sector digital services. The European Accessibility Act extended the regulatory perimeter to private-sector digital services, and Italy transposed it through Decreto Legislativo 82/2022. The combined framework now covers public bodies, large private enterprises, and consumer-facing digital services placed on the Italian market.
Who is covered
Public administration websites and apps (long-standing under the Stanca Law), plus private companies with annual turnover above 500 million € for at least three of the last four years. The EAA layer additionally covers consumer-facing services in e-commerce, banking, transport, audio-visual, and electronic communications regardless of company size — except micro-enterprises.
What changed in 2025
From June 28, 2025, EAA-derived obligations apply to new and substantially updated services on the Italian market. Existing services have until June 28, 2030 to comply. AgID supervises public-sector compliance; AGCOM has expanded its surveillance role for telecom and audio-visual services.
Enforcement authority
AgID (Agenzia per l'Italia Digitale) handles public-sector enforcement and publishes the technical guidelines (Linee Guida sull'accessibilità). For private services under the EAA, market-surveillance is split across sectoral regulators including AGCOM and consumer-protection authorities (AGCM).
Penalties
Fines under D.Lgs. 82/2022 reach 5% of annual turnover for repeated breaches, plus operational restrictions. The Stanca Law has its own fine regime for public-sector bodies. AgID also maintains a public list of non-compliant public-sector sites — the Italian equivalent of a name-and-shame mechanism.
Three steps to real preparation, not a checkbox
The same workflow Italian agencies use to prepare client sites for D.Lgs. 82/2022 and Stanca Law obligations — from initial gap assessment to ongoing monitoring.

What this is, and what it is not
AccessiProof provides evidence-backed website accessibility audits, prioritized findings, and remediation guidance aligned to D.Lgs. 82/2022 and the Stanca Law. Reports are not legal advice, not certification, and not a formal conformance determination by AgID or any other Italian authority. Compliance decisions remain the responsibility of the covered business and its Italian legal counsel. Where authoritative determinations are required, involve qualified Italian accessibility and legal professionals.
