AMLA's Final CDD Standards Make eID the Default for Remote Onboarding | Trinsic ↗ · repeat of an earlier article
What happened
- The consultation drew 325 responses, and AMLA said Article 22(6) measures remain the default with alternative methods reserved for cases where neither can be used.
- Recital 11 counts any electronic identification means at assurance level substantial or high, whether or not notified under eIDAS.
- Every member state has to offer at least one EUDI Wallet by December 24, 2026.
- Annex I attribute names follow the EUDI Wallet person identification data rules.
Why it matters to Signicat
- Content frames eID as the default for remote onboarding, which bears on Signicat's eID brokering and Wallet Hub positioning in Nordics and Benelux.
