EUDI Wallet
EUDI Wallet readiness in Portugal
Portugal’s gov.pt is a live domestic document wallet, with ARTE assigned its evolution and alignment with the European wallet framework. Portugal has also published its national wallet-certification scheme, PT EWCS v1.2, dated 3 July 2026. That publication is a concrete milestone, but it is not a certificate for gov.pt or another wallet.
The scheme permits an online-only initial version and includes private provision subject to recognition and certification. Existing integration documentation largely concerns domestic identity services and protocols; an EUDI developer environment and production relying-party registrar are not identified in the available evidence. Portugal has an established app and published scheme, with operational EUDI access still requiring clarification.
