Status of digital accessibility

This website is partially compliant with the annex to the Act of 4 April 2019 on the digital accessibility of websites and mobile applications of public entities, due to the non-compliances and exemptions listed below.

Inaccessible content

Non-compliance with the annex

  1. although links on the site generally open in the same window, due to certain system limitations, in some instances they may open in a new window without notifying the user,
  2. due to system limitations:
    1. editors do not use the "lang" tag,
    2. it is not possible for users to independently adjust line spacing, paragraph spacing, word spacing, or letter spacing,
  3. due to thematic similarity of text blocks, some page titles may not be unique,
  4. despite the efforts of developers, some services provided via the website may lack properly defined labels and form field descriptions,
  5. despite the editors’ efforts, some documents published on the website may be inaccessible due to:
    1. originating from various sources,
    2. having structures that cannot be modified – e.g. files made available to developers that describe document schemas,
    3. being published in accordance with rules adopted by another institution,
    4. being published before the entry into force of the Digital Accessibility Act,
  6. some videos on the website may lack subtitles or other required accessibility elements,
  7. despite the editors’ efforts:
    1. the purpose of some links may not be adequately defined,
    2. attachments may lack information on file size and format,
    3. some graphics may lack alternative text or text equivalents.

The non-compliances indicated in points 6–7 above arise from the fact that the affected website elements were made available prior to the entry into force of the Digital Accessibility Act. The Ministry of Finance nevertheless makes every effort to ensure that, wherever possible, these elements are improved and made digitally accessible to the widest possible audience.
