The Wallet Identification is how we prove who we are; think of your ID or driver’s license. With more and more private and public services becoming digital, a safe, reliable, and privacy enhancing means of digital identification is needed for everyone in Europe. EU Digital Identity Wallets are the European Union's response to the challenges of digital identification. Every EU Member State will offer its own wallet app, built to the same specifications, to all citizens, residents and businesses in the next few years. Each version of the wallet will be interoperable and will work wherever you are in Europe.

Each Member State will offer its own version of the EU Digital
Identity Wallets built to the same technical standards and offering
the same user experience and functionalities, no matter where they are
used and in which Member State they are issued. The Large Scale Pilots
are currently testing prototype wallets built using the
open specifications and the wallet Reference Implementation.
Now that Digital Identity Regulation has entered into force, each
Member State will be obligated to offer at least one wallet to
citizens, residents, and businesses. Each will be interoperable,
working with every other national wallet; accepting the same digital
documents (mobile driving licences, university diplomas etc.) and your
digital ID (your date of birth, nationality etc.). Every certified
version of the wallet will be recognized throughout Europe.
