Municipality-Specific Pain Points

E-belediye sitelerinin en sık erişilebilirlik ihlalleri

WCAG 2.2 A non-conformities found in standard e-municipality infrastructures; each can be detected in an audit.

CBS Maps and Geographic Data Visuals

Zoning plans, transport maps and CBS visuals are usually visual only. The lack of alternative text, keyboard navigability and a textual description creates a WCAG 1.1.1 and 2.1.1 violation.

WCAG 1.1.1 + 2.1.1 (A)

E-Municipality Portal and E-Signature Flow

Keyboard navigation, form labels, error messages and focus indicators are often missing in the debt query, payment, application and e-signature steps. E-signature pop-ups may not work with a screen reader.

WCAG 2.1.1 + 3.3.2 (A)

Tender, Council Decision and Announcement PDFs

When tender notices, council decisions and official announcements are published as scanned PDFs, a screen reader cannot process them. Unlabeled PDFs fall under a WCAG 1.3.1 (meaningful structure) violation.

WCAG 1.3.1 (A)
Solution Package

Municipality-specific, on a single platform.

Scanning, widget and statement together for your Circular 2025/10 preparation, hosted in Turkey.

WCAG 2.2 A Scanner

Actually measures your site, not just an indicator.

Multi-page scanning with 19 static rules. Critical / Serious / Moderate / Minor severity classification. After each scan, missing alt texts, contrast ratio, unlabeled forms and keyboard traps are detected. PDF report + CSV export included.

  • CBS map and e-municipality form violations are detected
  • 0-100 Accessibility Health + prioritized violation order
  • Support for the Ministry application with PDF and CSV export

Accessibility Widget

30 settings, extra options for citizens.

With the Shadow DOM architecture, it does not break the CSS/JS of your e-municipality software. Keyboard navigation highlighting, contrast mode, reading guide, dyslexia helper, color filters. 10-language support included.

  • Compatible with Kentkur, Belnet, WordPress, Drupal
  • 11 ready-made profiles: senior, seizure safe, low vision, dyslexia
  • No need to change your existing system, single-line embed

Statement + Cookie Management

Generates legal documents, categorizes cookies.

Create an official accessibility statement in the Circular 2025/10 format; add it to the municipality footer with a single click. With the cookie management module, citizen data stays within the country under KVKK Article 9.

  • Ready statement template in the circular format
  • Timestamped cookie log, for the KVKK burden of proof
  • cerez.io infrastructure, data center in Türkiye

There is no such thing as a "one-click accessible site".

Overlay tools claim "instant compliance"; this neither resolves most WCAG violations nor avoids legal risk. We took a different path; we provide your municipality with a real report and real documentation.

The overlay approach

One line of script, a big promise.

  • "Instant compliance / protects from lawsuits" claims
  • Does not fix the source code, hides the problem
  • Does not produce an auditable report or official statement
  • Foreign data center, KVKK Article 9 risk
  • English-only support, unfamiliar with Turkish legislation

cerez.io approach

Real scanner + assistive widget + statement.

  • Actually measures WCAG 2.2 A/AA rules
  • 0-100 Accessibility Health + prioritized violation report
  • Official statement in the circular format + Ministry application support
  • cerez.io, data center in Türkiye
  • Turkish email + ticket support, local contract

We say it plainly: full compliance requires source code fixes. We shorten the path and produce the evidence.

Risk Calculation

Uyumsuzluk belediyeye ne maliyeti?

On the web side the real risk is not a direct fine tariff: audits, Court of Accounts findings, press coverage and citizen complaints.

Law 5378 Fine Tariff
5K - 25K TL
Aimed at physical accessibility; no web tariff has been set yet
Audit and Oversight

Karşılaştırma: cerez.io Erişilebilirlik Pro planı aylık $29; kurum dışı bir erişilebilirlik danışmanlık projesinin küçük bir bölümüne denk gelir. Erken uyum, denetim ve itibar riskine karşı en düşük maliyetli önlemdir.

Frequently Asked Questions

Belediye SSS

Is our municipality covered by Circular 2025/10?
Yes. All metropolitan, provincial and district municipalities are covered by Law No. 5378 on Persons with Disabilities and Presidential Circular 2025/10. Municipalities fall into the one-year compliance period group; the deadline was 21 June 2026 and the obligation is now in force.
What penalties can be applied?
The administrative fine regime of Law No. 5378 (5,000-25,000 TL per finding, with an annual cap of 500,000 TL for public bodies) is, in its current form, aimed at physical accessibility; no direct fine tariff has been set for websites yet. On the web side the real risk is review commissions, TİHEK oversight, Court of Accounts findings and citizen complaints. Consult a lawyer about your institution's situation.
How do GIS maps become compliant?
A text alternative for the map data must be provided. The cerez.io widget provides keyboard navigation and a magnifier; however, the text alternative for the map content must be prepared by the municipality IT team. This gap is detected during the scan step, and a remediation guide is provided.
Is widget integration easy?
Widget integration, yes; with a single-line JS embed code, accessibility controls are offered to citizens. However, the infrastructure fixes needed for full WCAG A compliance (unlabeled forms, PDFs, etc.) can take 2-4 weeks. During this time, the widget provides a visible solution for citizens.
How are demos and pricing discussions arranged?
Share your municipality details (population, number of domains, current infrastructure) via the contact page. Our team responds within 1 business day and schedules an online demo. A custom Enterprise offer is prepared for metropolitan municipalities.
