Hi Kiran, If the input the error message is correct - but of course it’s better to inform at this point already about what should be in the input. But if there is something in the input that failed a validation, information should be given, that explains what kind of data and/ or in which is expected. Like a phone number, a date (mm/dd/yy or dd//mm/yyyy old month like January, February…) This would be SC 3.3.3 https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG21/Understanding/error-suggestion.html -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen Marc Haunschild - he / him - #gernPerDu Prüfstelle im BIK-BITV-Prüfverbund Marc Haunschild Accessibility Consulting Sonnenhof 32 53119 Bonn Telefon: 0170 8 64 00 63 Web: https://Accessibility.Consulting https://mhis.de Email: Marc.Haunschild@Accessibility.Consulting > Am 17.03.2023 um 15:27 schrieb Kiran <kiranph@gmail.com>: > > morning all! > > looking for a suggestion on some issues if it still fails WCAG compliance. > > Recently, one of the forms with all mandatory fields has been designed, and everything is correct.
