What’s the Difference Between WCAG, the EAA, and EN 301 549? Complex topic indeed. I love a good food metaphor, so here we go: - WCAG is the cookbook that tells you how to prepare accessible digital content. - The EAA is the food safety law: it makes serving accessible content mandatory in the EU.

3 illustrations showing the difference between WCAG, European Accessibility Act and EN 301 549 with the following text. WCAG: a cookbook: with recipes (guidelines) for preparing accessible digital content. It’s a global reference, but following it is voluntary. Illustration of a cook holding a WCAG cookbook European Accessibility Act. The food safety law: it makes serving accessible content mandatory in the EU. Enforced by EU member states, with penalties for non-compliance. Illustration of the scale of justice, with a contract named EAA EN 301 549: A detailed inspection checklist: not mandatory on its own, but, used to show the “recipes” were followed correctly. It’s based on WCAG. Illustration of a checklist, being checked by a pen, titled EN 301 549.
