Sources disagree — the text comparison and the EU's own amendment metadata found this change; the amending act's instructions do not mention it. All are shown; none is overruled.
The heading now adds a reference to special needs alongside persons with disabilities.
The operative sentence changes from a feasibility-qualified accessibility requirement for trust services and end-user products to a requirement that electronic identification means, trust services and end-user products be made available in plain and intelligible language, referencing the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and the accessibility requirements of Directive (EU) 2019/882, and mentioning benefit to persons with functional limitations, elderly people, and persons with limited access to digital technologies.
