Accessible language services for EAA compliance
Make your multilingual content accessible and EAA compliant. We help you create digital content that's clear, inclusive and compliant.
Make your multilingual content accessible and compliant
Making digital content accessible to everyone is no longer just a nice-to-have. From June 2025, many businesses across the EU are required to make their digital content accessible to everyone.
The European Accessibility Act references the EN 301 549 standard, which aligns with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1, Level AA.
Not sure where to start? At Planet Languages, we help you create digital content that’s clear, inclusive and compliant.
Embedding accessibility from the start
Your digital content needs to be accessible to all audiences, including people with disabilities. This covers:
- Your website
- Videos
- E-books
- Apps
- Electronic documents
When you’re producing multilingual content, accessibility can become complex. We make it simple – by building inclusion into every stage of the localization process.
The risk of leaving accessibility too late
Accessibility works best when it’s part of your content strategy from day one. If you treat it as an afterthought, you risk excluding customers, damaging your brand reputation and facing legal action or costly, rushed remediation.
It’s much easier – and far more effective – to start at the source.
Our accessible language services
