I wonder how home-grown European companies like Fairphone will be affected by this.

Mixed. They sell phones with “standard” Android and /e/OS. “standard” Android could potencially have strong Google Play Integrity API support, while /e/OS which uses open source MicroG can only get basic Google Play Integrity API support.
But since it can required by app developer for any reason, it can easily be abused or mandated by law like age verifaction or chat control.
