Description of content
| National wallet |
|---|
| Is there already one or more national digital (identity) wallets being used in this country? Where can we find information about it? |
| EUDIW status |
| Information about the status of the nations EUDIW efforts and if any of the EUDIW organisational roles specified in eIDAS is already decided and in implemented. |
| Electronic identity and Personal Identification Data (PID) |
| What is the correlation (if any) between the nations electronic identity for natural persons (e.g. eIDAS) and the PID that is used in the EUDIW. How is the PID (or similar concept) formatted, how is it used within the nation and how can it be used by other nations? |
| National architecture documents |
Does the nation have an idea and maybe even a documented architecture for how the national identity wallet(s) and/or the EU digital identity wallet should be build and how the wallet ecosystem should be integrated with the rest of the digitalised society? |
| Stakeholder groups |
Which actors within the nation are actively involved in the work of the digital identity wallets, e.g. organisations working on the ecosystem components or organisations that have the responsibility to uphold certain functions of the eIDAS regulation. |
| Current progress |
| What is the status of current efforts within the nation in regards to work with the digital identity wallet ecosystem not already covered above? |

France has not yet introduced a national digital identity wallet but plans to adopt the EUDI Wallet. France has introduced the France Identité app, a government-developed digital identity application designed to simplify interactions with administrative services and enhance secure identity verification. Launched on February 14, 2024, this free application allows users to store their national ID card information on their smartphones, facilitating various procedures more efficiently. [ref] FranceConnect is a single sign-on platform provided by the French government. It allows users to securely log in to over 1,400 online services (both public and private) using a single set of credentials. This eliminates the need to create multiple accounts for different services. An enhanced version of FranceConnect, called FranceConnect+, is used for more sensitive services, such as those involving financial transactions or highly secure data. It requires stronger identity verification, often through a digital identity like France Identité. |
| EUDIW status |
FranceConnect: France is working to integrate its existing national digital identity systems, such as the FranceConnect platform, into the EUDI Wallet framework. FranceConnect is already a widely used digital identity system that allows citizens to access various public services securely. France, in collaboration with Germany, leads the POTENTIAL consortium, which began work on the EUDI Wallet, with deployment expected by 2025. [ref] |

Germany has not yet introduced a national digital identity wallet but plans to adopt the EUDI Wallet. The current usable national identity app in Germany is the AusweisApp2. This app allows users to utilize their electronic identity card (eID) for secure online identification. With AusweisApp2, individuals can prove their identity digitally, enabling them to complete various tasks online, such as submitting applications that would typically require in-person verification and signatures.

| EUDIW status |
| To foster pioneering solutions in digital identity, Germany's Federal Agency for Disruptive Innovation (SPRIND) initiated the "Funke" challenge. This competition aims to develop and test technical solutions for future German EUDI wallets in the form of prototypes, contributing valuable insights for creating secure, data-efficient, and user-friendly EUDI wallets. [ref] |
| Electronic identity and Personal Identification Data (PID) |
| Data included in the national electronic ID card: photograph, the data the person can see on his/her ID card (Surname, Name at birth, given names, date of birth, place of birth, date of expiry, card access number, signature, colour of eyes, address, height, date, authority, religious name or pseudonym, logo eID function) and, if the person wishes, also his/her fingerprints. The person decides whether his/her fingerprint data will be stored on the ID card. https://www.personalausweisportal.de/Webs/PA/EN/citizens/german-id-card/data-stored-in-the-chip/data-stored-in-the-chip-node.html |

The German Federal Agency for Disruptive Innovation (SPRIND) has announced the first six participants of its competition to design EUDI Wallet prototypes. The winning projects which got funded are:
SPRIND, has come out with five new names that will test their prototypes within the non-funding track. Projects that will participate in creating the EUDI Wallet without financial assistance from SPRIND are:
