Today, moving, working or studying in another EU country can involve separate national systems and a lot of paperwork. So, the EU has come up with the EU Digital Identity (EUDI) Wallet, a government-backed mobile app that will let people and businesses prove their identity online and in person across the entire European Union. The goal is to make cross-border services easier to use.
It's designed to store all official digital credentials in one place. These can include a national ID, driver's licence, medical prescriptions and academic diplomas. It can also support electronic signatures, payment methods and business certificates. Tasks such as opening a bank account, renting a car or enrolling at a university abroad should become simpler to complete digitally.
