Gaia-X Trust Label (Level 1-3)

Why important?

The Gaia-X Trust Label is a trust and sovereignty credential referenced in the CISPE/Gaia-X ecosystem.

How measured?

Scale 0–5 + N/A:
  • 0 = No Gaia-X label / no reliable statement.
  • 1 = Label announced or applied for.
  • 2 = Gaia-X label level 1 (self-declaration).
  • 3 = Gaia-X label level 2.
  • 4 = Gaia-X label level 3 (highest level).
  • 5 = Gaia-X label level 3 with a verifiable, current conformity confirmation.
  • N/A = no reliable evidence

Validation questions (RFP)

  • For which services and regions is a Gaia-X Trust Label in place, at which level (1 to 3) and with what validity? Can the label be verified via a public source? Which services in the requested scope are not labelled?
