The guideline that is being examined is WCAG 2.1 (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) at level AA, which corresponds to the European standard EN 301 549 , which is the basis for those who are subject to the DOS Act (the Act on Accessibility to Digital Public Services) or LPTT (Private Sector Accessibility Directive). However, EN 301 549 contains more than WCAG 2.1, read more on Webbriktlinjer.se.
