Road to 2.0 profile adoption
Following the 2023 public consultation on the 2.0 draft specifications, the eDelivery team made substantial revisions to the initially proposed drafts based on feedback and internal analysis. This collaborative process led to the new draft specifications for the eDelivery AS4 2.0 and eDelivery SMP 2.0 profiles. The 2024 drafts included advancements in cryptography to leverage the best available security measures. To refine these aspects, the eDelivery team has incorporated input from a cryptography expert.

Assuming a successful Interoperability Event with no unforeseen roadblocks, formal publication of the new specifications is expected in the second half of 2024. While some early adopters might be ready by 2025, a more realistic timeframe for widespread product support for the new specifications is likely to be 2026 onwards. The European Commission's Domibus is tentatively slated for an update by the end of 2025.
New eDelivery digital ecosystems
eDelivery is experiencing increasing adoption across various EU digital ecosystems. Three of them have transitioned to production this year:

We invite you to follow our website for further updates on ATHINA, CBAM and other potential eDelivery digital ecosystems.
eDelivery monitoring
We are committed to continuous monitoring and improvement of eDelivery. We track key metrics such as ecosystem adoption, Access Points, exchanged messages and interconnected organisations through a public dashboard. This data informs ongoing development efforts and ensures eDelivery remains a relevant and effective solution for secure digital data exchange across Europe.

To foster knowledge sharing, we are gathering registrations for a webinar in December. This will be an opportunity to showcase eDelivery use cases.
eDelivery in data spaces
eDelivery plays a role in the EU's Common European Data Spaces initiative, ensuring secure and interoperable data exchange across various domains. It aligns with the Data Spaces Support Centre's blueprint for data space creation and contributes to building a future-proof, scalable data ecosystem. eDelivery is being integrated into the following data spaces:
- Once Only Technical System (OOTS). This first European data space is live since December 2023.
- HealthData@EU. This pilot is currently undergoing testing for national contact point data exchange with eDelivery being used for communication between national points and central EU services.
- European Mobility Data Space (EMDS). Currently under discussion for potential implementation, building on existing eDelivery-powered ecosystems in the mobility sector.
Market of conformant solutions
In parallel with the eDelivery 2.0 specification development, the eDelivery team has been diligently working on improvements to the conformance testing service. This service guarantees that eDelivery-conformant solutions offered by vendors adhere to the eDelivery specifications.
