<p>If the element includes both the `required` attribute and the `aria-required` attribute with a valid value, User Agents MUST expose only the `required` attribute value.</p>

<p>

If an element is <a data-cite="html/input.html#concept-input-required">required</a>, user agents MUST NOT expose the

element with an intitial invalid state (<a class="core-mapping" href="#ariaInvalidTrue">`aria-invalid="true"`</a>).

The user agent SHOULD expose the invalid state only after <strong>1)</strong> a user has purposefully interacted with a required element,

or attempted to submit a form and <strong>2)</strong> the element, or elements, do not meet

<a data-cite="html/form-control-infrastructure.html#constraint-validation">constraint validation</a>.

</p>

<p>

Until these conditions are met, user agents MUST expose the elements as

(<a class="core-mapping" href="#ariaInvalidFalse">`aria-invalid="false"`</a>).
