ETSI’s Centre for Testing and Interoperability, with the support of ETSI’s Technical Committee for Electronic Signatures and Trust Infrastructures (TC ESI), is organising the Electronic Attestation of Attributes (EAA) Plugtests™ event, which will be held remotely from 4 May to 1 June 2026. This event is co-funded by the European Union (EU) and the European Free Trade Association (EFTA).
Scope
The aim of this event is to check the interoperability of EAA, a key component of the European Digital Identity Wallet (EUDI Wallet). The testing will cover the ETSI Technical Specification TS 119 472-1, with a special focus on the formats built on SD-JWT VC and ISO 18013-5.
The following types of tests will be conducted during the EAA Plugtests event:
- Generation and cross-verification tests.
- Only-verification tests (negative tests).
- EAA Conformance Checker.
This Plugtests event is organised by ETSI and co-funded by the European Union (EU) and the European Free Trade Association (EFTA).
Registration
Registration will open early 2026.
All participants are expected to register individually to this event. The first person from an organisation to register for the event will be de facto the official contact for technical and administrative matters.
The deadline to register is 20 April 2026.
This event is free of charge.
Rules of Engagement (RoE) AND Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA)
By registering for the Electronic Attestation of Attributes (EAA) Plugtests event, new participating organisations are joining the ESI Plugtests Programme and will be asked to sign the Rules of Engagement (RoE) and Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) which they will receive upon registration for signature.
These RoE and NDA cover the series of Plugtests events which are held as part of the ESI Plugtests Programme.
Companies which previously signed the RoE and NDA of the ESI Plugtests Programme when registering to the previous ESI Plugtests event, will not need to sign the RoE and NDA again. Only new organisations joining the Programme will receive the RoE and NDA for signature.
Participants will not be allowed to participate in the event if the RoE and NDA of the Programme have not been signed by a representative of their organisation.
Credentials to access the testing web portal will be issued once the RoE and NDA have been completed and the portal opens.
The deadline to sign the Rules of Engagement and Non-Disclosure Agreement is 27 April 2026.
