Italy’s public digital identity landscape comprises SPID, a federated login provided through accredited private identity providers; CIE, the NFC-enabled electronic identity card used with the CieID app; and IT-Wallet, a document wallet in the IO app that currently lacks a published private-sector relying-party route. SPID and CIE are both EU-notified at Low, Substantial, and High assurance levels and, at Substantial or High levels, can satisfy Italian remote customer-identification requirements under anti-money-laundering rules, making them the recommended primary options for businesses onboarding Italian users, with document verification as a fallback for people without eligible eIDs or from abroad. The guide notes that SPID is widely used for online logins, while CIE has tens of millions of issued cards, and explains their different technical user journeys, costs, attributes, and integration routes. IT-Wallet is growing and participating in testing but has not yet been confirmed as Italy’s certified European Digital Identity Wallet. It also highlights that SPID does not currently meet Italy’s double-anonymity requirement for adult-content age verification because identity providers receive the site domain. Looking ahead, EU rules require Member States to provide an EUDI Wallet by December 2026 and may require many regulated private parties to accept it by December 2027.
