Accessibility statement
The town of St. Vith is committed to making its website accessible in accordance with the decree of 15 October 2018 on individual and public electronic communication by authorities in the German-speaking region (legislation implementing Directive (EU) 2016/2102 of the European Parliament and of the Council).
This accessibility statement applies to the website of the town of St. Vith, accessible at https://www.st.vith.be and its partner sites (Stadtwerke, Sport- und Freizeitzentrum, Öffentliches Sozialhilfezentrum and Tourist Info).
Compliance status
The website has undergone a simplified audit process, which examined 23 criteria from the following categories described in standard EN301549, version 3.2.1:
- 9.1.1 Text alternatives
- 9.1.2 Time-based media
- 9.1.3 Customisable
- 9.1.4 Distinguishable
- 9.2.1 Keyboard accessible
- 9.2.2 Sufficient time
- 9.2.4 Navigable
- 9.2.5 Input modalities
- 9.3.1 Readable
- 9.3.3 Input assistance
- 9.4.1 Compatible
At the time of review, this website largely meets these criteria and is therefore considered partially compliant with the EN301549 standard.
Preparation of this accessibility statement
This statement was prepared on the basis of an automated audit conducted on 24 September 2025 using the Accessibility Cloud Audit Tool by the responsible supervisory body.

Plans for improvement
Due to the large number of pages, modules, programmes, etc. to be managed, it is not possible to achieve full compliance with all the criteria described in the EN301549 standard in a single step. Directive (EU) 2016/2102 is therefore being implemented through the continuous improvement of existing error messages.
