Accessibility Testing Services in Dubai and the UAE

Vervali provides accessibility testing services in Dubai that help UAE organisations meet WCAG 2.1 AA, the standard required for government digital services under the National Digital Accessibility Policy. We test your website or app against the real barriers users with disabilities face, screen reader support, keyboard navigation and colour contrast among them, then give you a clear audit report and help you fix what we find. As an ISO 27001 certified, testing-first firm, we make accessibility compliance straightforward. This page explains the UAE rule, what our testing covers, and what you get.

The UAE accessibility rule you must meet

WCAG 2.1 AA is the required standard for federal government digital services. Here is what that means in plain terms.

WCAG 2.1 AA for UAE government digital services

The UAE National Digital Accessibility Policy sets WCAG 2.1 Level AA as the required standard for federal government entities and their digital services. For public bodies and the vendors that build for them, meeting it is not optional.

Who the mandate applies to?

Federal government entities and their e-services must comply. Private organisations in banking, healthcare, education and retail increasingly adopt the same standard to reduce legal risk and to serve every customer.

What a clean pass means?

Your site or app works for users with disabilities, maps to WCAG 2.1 AA criteria, and stands up to a real audit, not just a tool score.

Quick compliance check

  • Is your digital service in scope for the federal policy?
  • Have you tested with screen readers and keyboard only?
  • Do you have severity-ranked fix guidance for developers?
  • Will you re-test after remediation?

What our accessibility testing covers?

We test the real barriers users with disabilities face on web and mobile, then map every failure to WCAG 2.1 AA.

Screen reader and keyboard testing

We test that your site or app works fully with screen readers and by keyboard alone, the way many users with disabilities navigate.

Colour contrast and readability

We check colour contrast, text sizing and readability against WCAG thresholds so content is usable for people with low vision.

Forms, media and mobile accessibility

We test forms, error messages, captions and touch targets, on web and mobile, where most real failures happen.

Frequently Asked Questions

For federal government entities and their digital services, yes. The National Digital Accessibility Policy requires WCAG 2.1 Level AA. Private organisations increasingly adopt the same standard to reduce risk.
