Blocking root is definitely not an EU thing. BankID runs just fine on my Magisked phone, the only payment app I've had issues with was Google Pay.

The regulation says that system integrity has to be verified. Some banks don't comply, but many (every one I use) do.

BTW magisk has a way to hide from the apps, so that might be the reason - that doesn't mean there isn't a problem with the regulation. But 2 of my 3 banks see through that. And one of them doesn't want to load on LineageOS even if it's not rooted because it's compiled in some dev mode that might allow something...

Every single bank in my country uses BankID, along with several governmental services.

That it's not one tiny renegade bank breaking the rules.
