Germany plans to launch its state-operated European Digital Identity Wallet, called d-you, on 2 January 2027, offering citizens and residents a free, voluntary mobile app to store and share identity data and credentials such as the ID function, followed by driving licences, social security cards and pension cards. Built under the EU’s eIDAS 2 framework at a high assurance level, the wallet will allow users to approve selective disclosure of registered attributes to businesses for uses including age verification, contract signing and bank-account opening, while existing card-based Online-Ausweis identification will remain available. Private organisations legally or contractually required to use strong authentication for online identification, including relevant financial and telecommunications providers, must accept EUDI Wallets upon user request by 24 December 2027, although small and micro-enterprises are exempt and alternative identification methods must remain available. Germany’s proposed Digital Identity Act is intended to establish national implementation arrangements, while businesses can already test integrations through a government sandbox, register their intended data requests, and prepare for standards such as OpenID4VP and selective disclosure. The account also notes that the wallet may not initially provide all data needed for customer due diligence, particularly address information and portraits, and that AML rules from July 2027 are expected to permit high-assurance electronic identity methods for verification.
