Are there already one or more national recognised digital (identity) wallets being used in this country ( e.g. EUDI wallet, wallets that are used in different sectors etc.)? Where can we find information about them?

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?

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.

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. [ref]

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.ref

Italy released the “Documenti su IO” functionality as the first step towards the Italian Digital Wallet, introducing in a production stage the first pre-release of “IT-Wallet System”. On 4 December 2024 the national digital services mobile app (IO App) enabled all citizens and residents to activate and store the digital version of three documents: the digital Driving License, Health Insurance Card and Disability Card.

Italy is currently working on aligning its digital identity framework with eIDAS regulations to ensure interoperability with EUDIW implementations, towards the integration of its national digital identity system into the EUDI Wallet ecosystem.
Italy actively contributes to two of the European Commission’s EUDIW Large Scale Pilot Projects, the NOBID and POTENTIAL consortiums, and in the upcoming APTITUDE and WEBUILD consortiums.

• PagoPA S.p.A. as IO app owner and public IT-Wallet provider
• Istituto Poligrafico e Zecca dello Stato (IPZS - the Italian State Printing Works and Mint) as digital documents issuer.

• Updated uptake numbers of the “Documenti su IO” functionality can be found on the IO App official website.
• Ongoing efforts to incorporate digital identity functionality by 2025.

Launched 2022 (Currently supports digital ID, mDL and more. Developed by private player Youniqx)

Based on building on two established apps: eID Austria, a mobile digital ID app geared toward online use cases and 

eAusweise, a mobile app for driving licenses geared toward in-person use cases, which already has approximately 1 million users ref.

Migration preparation for the two apps into the EUDI wallet architecture: open-source wallet named Valera (used for testing and implementation in the Large-Scale Pilots.

Developed by the Austrian Secure Information Technology Center (A-SIT)).
