From 2025, the Interoperable Europe Act (as set out in Article 3 of the Act proposal) will require EU institutions, member states, and regional and local public administrations to undergo mandatory interoperability assessments for digital public services involving cross-border data exchange.
These assessments will identify efficient ways to enhance European cross-border interoperability, digitize decision-making processes, and reduce administrative burdens for citizens.
To develop effective assessment guidelines, Interoperable Europe is organizing a pilot phase, inviting public administrations to contribute to the process. The pilot aims to evaluate the European interoperability of cross-border data-exchanging digital public services, gather feedback, and address needs and challenges. The results will help refine the assessment guidelines, ensuring the most efficient tools are adopted by the Interoperable Europe board, which will be established later this year.
