Why hospitality and travel companies in Denmark need accessibility audits

Hospitality & Travel operating in Denmark must ensure their websites, mobile apps, and digital services are accessible under European Accessibility Act. Denmark is a highly digitalised market with strong e-government and banking accessibility norms. DIGISARAL delivers EN 301 549 (WCAG 2.1 AA) accessibility audits, VPATs, and code-level remediation for hospitality and travel companies serving the European Union market.

The European Accessibility Act (EAA, Directive (EU) 2019/882) applies from 28 June 2025 and requires a broad range of products and services — e-commerce, banking, e-books, transport, telecoms and more — to be accessible across the EU. Each member state transposes the EAA into national law with its own enforcement authority. The harmonized technical standard is EN 301 549, which references WCAG 2.1 AA. DIGISARAL delivers EAA and EN 301 549 audits and remediation for companies selling into the EU.

Hospitality & Travel accessibility FAQs — Denmark

Are hospitality and travel companies in Denmark legally required to be accessible?
Yes. Under European Accessibility Act, hospitality and travel companies operating in Denmark must ensure their websites, mobile apps and digital services meet EN 301 549 (WCAG 2.1 AA). Non-compliance can lead to legal complaints, regulatory enforcement, and reputational risk.
Which accessibility standard applies in Denmark?
We audit to EN 301 549 (WCAG 2.1 AA) — the recognised conformance standard for European Accessibility Act — covering the four WCAG principles: perceivable, operable, understandable and robust, across both web and mobile.
How long does an accessibility audit take?
A typical cycle is 4–6 weeks: automated scanning, manual expert testing with assistive technology (screen readers, keyboard-only, magnification), and a prioritised remediation report. Automated tools alone catch only ~25–30% of issues, so manual testing is essential for certification.
What deliverables do we receive?
A detailed audit report mapped to EN 301 549 (WCAG 2.1 AA), an accessibility conformance report (VPAT), code-level remediation guidance prioritised by severity, and an accessibility statement suitable as European Accessibility Act evidence.
What is the applicable national law in Denmark?
In Denmark, European Accessibility Act is applied through national EAA transposition. Our audits map every finding to both the harmonised standard and the local legal requirements.
