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.

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.
