Latvia in the EUDI ecosystem

Latvia's EUDI Wallet is currently in development. You can configure issuance and verification templates in Paradym that will work out-of the box when the wallet goes live.

Under the eIDAS 2.0 regulation, every EU member state must offer citizens a European Digital Identity (EUDI) Wallet. Latvia's national wallet will give residents a way to hold and present trusted digital credentials, starting with person identification data (PID).

With Paradym, you can prepare OpenID4VC issuance and verification flows for Latvian PID credentials today, so your integration is ready as the national wallet ecosystem matures.

Common questions

How does the EUDI Wallet work in Latvia?

Latvia, like every EU member state, must provide a European Digital Identity Wallet under eIDAS 2.0. The wallet will let residents hold and present digital credentials such as person identification data.

Can I verify Latvian EUDI Wallet credentials with Paradym?

Paradym supports verification flows for EUDI-style credentials. However, end-to-end testing with the national wallet depends on that wallet being available and exposing the relevant credentials, as there is currently no available Latvian wallet it is not possible to verify credentials from that wallet.

Can I issue credentials to the Latvia EUDI Wallet with Paradym?

Paradym can issue standards-compliant EUDI credentials today, but those credentials cannot currently be issued into the Latvia national wallet through a public production integration. Once Latvia opens its issuer ecosystem as part of its EUDI rollout, Paradym's issuance APIs can be used to issue credentials to Latvia wallet, subject to any national onboarding, trust framework, and certification requirements.

Do relying parties and issuers need to register to use EDIM?

Yes. According to the State Digital Development Agency (VDAA), a service provider that wants to request data from EDIM will have to be identifiable and registered as a relying party, stating the data it requests and the purpose. A company that wants to issue attestations to EDIM users will have to register in the EDIM ecosystem and meet its technical requirements.
