Spain's EUDI Wallet is still in development, with Cartera Digital Beta acting as the clearest EUDI-aligned route for age verification and future wallet credentials. You can already prepare your Paradym integration for age proof, PID and other EUDI credential flows, so you are ready when the national wallet goes live.
Under the eIDAS 2.0 regulation, every EU member state must offer citizens a European Digital Identity (EUDI) Wallet. Spain's EUDI-relevant route is Cartera Digital Beta, which is focused first on privacy-preserving age verification and is expected to mature toward broader EUDI credential support.
With Paradym, you can prepare issuance and verification flows for future Spanish age proof, PID and EUDI Wallet credentials while Cartera Digital Beta and the national wallet rollout mature.

Cartera Digital is Spain's national implementation of the EUDI Wallet, built on the electronic national identity card (DNIe) and developed by the State Agency for Digital Administration (AEAD). Its first version, Cartera Digital Beta, focuses on privacy-preserving age verification and has been in interoperability testing with the European Commission's age verification pilot since 2025.

Spain's EUDI Wallet route is best understood through Cartera Digital, which is aligned with EUDI-style age verification and future wallet credentials.
Cartera Digital Beta is Spain's EUDI-relevant wallet initiative, focused first on privacy-preserving age verification. It is the clearest route to Spain's future EUDI Wallet credential flows, including PID and other attestations.
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 Spanish wallet it is not possible to verify credentials from that wallet.
Paradym can issue standards-compliant EUDI credentials today, but those credentials cannot currently be issued into the Spain national wallet through a public production integration. Once Spain opens its issuer ecosystem as part of its EUDI rollout, Paradym's issuance APIs can be used to issue credentials to Spain wallet, subject to any national onboarding, trust framework, and certification requirements.
Yes. Age verification is the main use case of Cartera Digital Beta. Users identify with the DNIe, Cl@ve or an electronic certificate, receive an age-of-majority credential and present it to authorised content providers using OpenID4VP. In April 2026 the European Commission named Spain as one of seven countries planning to integrate the EU age verification app into their national wallets.
Spain presents Cartera Digital as aligned with the EUDI Wallet Architecture and Reference Framework, but it is not yet certified under eIDAS 2.0. The Cartera Digital Beta apps received a national security certification (LINCE) from the National Cryptologic Centre (CCN) in February 2026, which is separate from EUDI Wallet certification. Under a draft royal decree published for consultation in October 2026, the CCN would certify the State's EUDI Wallet before it is notified to the European Commission.
Yes. A national register of wallet-relying parties, run by the State Agency for Digital Administration (AEAD) will be created. Relying parties established in Spain would register there, and qualified trust service providers authorised by the Ministry would issue access and registration certificates only to registered parties. A ministerial order would set the registration procedure. Cartera Digital Beta presents credentials only to content providers on its authorised list.
