Do Dutch web shops have an accessibility statement?

Every Monday this monitor checks the footer of Dutch web shops for a link to an accessibility statement. Look up your own shop, filter by category or status, or see how each sector is doing. One thing the numbers don't tell you: a statement being present doesn't mean the site is actually accessible.

Important: an accessibility statement is a promise, not proof. Whether a website really works for people with a disability only shows in a substantive test of the site itself. This monitor only checks whether the statement is in the footer, not whether it is accurate or how accessible the site really is.

Result per category

All web shops

Is your web shop listed here, but you fall outside the law? For example because you are a micro-enterprise or only supply to businesses. Object to being listed; it takes a few minutes. We assess every objection, and the public objection register shows how we handle them.

Of the sites with a statement that we could scan, most contain at least one automatically detectable WCAG error. Measured with axe-core. Automated checks don't cover every WCAG requirement, so "no errors found" doesn't automatically mean fully accessible. To see which errors a site has, use wcag-scan.nl.

Next step

Are you on this list yourself?

Then you now know whether an accessibility statement sits in your footer. Whether your site works with a screen reader and with the keyboard alone is something this monitor does not measure. An audit of your own site shows that.

Request an accessibility intake (NL)

The request form is in Dutch. Your request goes to an independent audit agency; EAA Monitor does not sell audits itself.
