The legal driver

Accessibility is no longer optional for online shops

Estonia transposed the European Accessibility Act into the Accessibility of Products and Services Act (Toodete ja teenuste ligipääsetavuse seadus, LPS). Since 28 June 2025 e-commerce services offered to consumers must meet the accessibility requirements of EN 301 549 — in practice WCAG 2.1 level AA.

Who is covered: online shops and marketplaces selling to consumers in the EU — regardless of where the shop is hosted. Micro-enterprises providing services are exempt, but their larger partners and platforms are not.
What is checked: perceivability, operability, understandability and robustness of the shop — from product pages and search to cart, checkout, payment and account flows.
What you must publish: an accessibility statement explaining how the service meets the requirements, kept up to date.
Who enforces it: the Estonian Consumer Protection and Technical Regulatory Authority (TTJA) supervises services and may order corrective action.
  • Apr 2019Directive (EU) 2019/882 — the European Accessibility Act — adopted.
  • 2022LPS adopted in Estonia, transposing the directive into national law.
  • 28 Jun 2025Requirements apply to new e-commerce services and to existing shops offered to consumers.
  • 2025 – 2030Transition for service contracts concluded before June 2025 — ending at the latest on 28 June 2030.
  • TodaySupervision is active. A documented audit and a published statement are your best evidence of due diligence.

This is general information, not legal advice. Our audit tells you where you stand technically; your legal counsel decides on obligations.

The service

One check. Everything a shop owner needs to know.

We don't sell retainers or vague consulting hours. The Accessibility Act Check is a tightly scoped product: a defined set of pages and flows, tested the same way every time, delivered in five working days.

Full purchase journey

Home, category, search, product page, cart, checkout, payment hand-off, order confirmation, login/registration and account pages — the flows the law actually covers.

Manual & assistive-technology testing

Keyboard-only navigation, screen readers (NVDA, VoiceOver), 200 % zoom, colour contrast, focus visibility, form errors and time limits — not just an automated scan.

Desktop and mobile

Every flow is tested on a desktop browser and on a mobile device, because most Baltic shoppers complete purchases on a phone.

Prioritised fix list

Every finding mapped to a WCAG 2.1 criterion and EN 301 549 clause, rated critical / major / minor, with a concrete recommendation and code-level hint for your developers.

Accessibility statement draft

A ready-to-publish accessibility statement in Estonian and English, in the structure the LPS and TTJA expect, filled with your actual findings.

Re-check included

Once your team has fixed the critical issues, we re-test them within 90 days and update your report and statement — at no extra cost.

How it works

Five working days, start to finish

You give us a URL and a contact developer. We do the rest.

Day 1

Kick-off & scoping

30-minute call. We agree the pages and flows, platform details (Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, custom) and test accounts.

Day 2

Automated baseline

Full crawl with axe-core and Lighthouse to catch the obvious — contrast, missing labels, structure — and to map the scope.

Day 3

Manual & AT testing

Keyboard, screen reader, zoom and mobile testing of the complete purchase journey, following EN 301 549.

Day 4

Report & statement

Findings written up, prioritised and mapped to criteria. Accessibility statement drafted in Estonian and English.

Day 5

Walkthrough

60-minute session with your team: what to fix first, how, and what it means for your statement. Report delivered as PDF + spreadsheet.

FAQ

Questions shop owners ask us

If you sell products or services to consumers online in the EU, the European Accessibility Act — transposed in Estonia as the LPS — applies to your e-commerce service from 28 June 2025. Micro-enterprises (fewer than 10 employees and under €2 million turnover) providing services are exempt, but platforms, marketplaces and larger retailers are not. We'll tell you honestly on the kick-off call if we think you're out of scope.

The full purchase journey — home, category, search, product, cart, checkout, payment hand-off, confirmation, login and account — on desktop and mobile, against all WCAG 2.1 level A and AA success criteria as referenced by EN 301 549. We test with keyboard only, with screen readers (NVDA and VoiceOver), at 200 % zoom and with automated tools (axe-core, Lighthouse).

Because a typical shop uses a limited set of templates, and a focused, methodical test of those templates and flows gives you 90 % of the value. A fixed scope also means a fixed price and a fixed delivery date — which is what you need for planning and for showing due diligence to the supervisory authority.

The check is an independent audit, so the fixes are done by your own developers or agency — that keeps the report objective. We do offer developer fix support by the hour if your team wants hands-on guidance, and the re-check of critical issues within 90 days is included in the price.

Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento / Adobe Commerce, PrestaShop, Shoproller, Voog, and custom-built shops. The audit is platform-independent; the recommendations are tailored to your platform so your developers know where to look.

No audit can "certify" compliance — the law requires the service itself to meet the requirements. What the report gives you is an objective, documented assessment, a prioritised plan and a published accessibility statement: exactly the evidence of due diligence that supervisory authorities look for.

Yes. The service is designed for Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, and the underlying standard (EN 301 549 / WCAG 2.1 AA) is the same across the EU. Reports are delivered in English; accessibility statements in Estonian and English, with Latvian or Lithuanian available on request.
