NemID era winding down: MitID takes over as prefered digital login solution

From September 22, MitID will be the preferred solution when accessing all public self-service sites like your taxes, health and citizen services

If you’re one of the few who have yet to make the switch from NemID to MitID, you’d better get a move on.

Because from September 22, MitID will replace NemID as the preferred login solution required to access all secure public self-service sites.

In other words, it will be the first solution users encounter when accessing taxes (skat.dk) or any citizen services (eBoks, borger.dk).

NemID done in June
Users will still be able to use NemID for now, but digital authority Digitaliseringsstyrelsen encourages everyone to make the switch.

Particularly given that NemID will no longer work when logging onto your online bank as of October 31.

NemID will gradually be phased out before completely shutting down on 30 June 2023.

Since MitID was first introduced as the new login solution back in October 2021, 4.5 million people have signed up for it.

MitID can be obtained via your bank or the MitID app – if there are any issues, contact citizen services Borgerservice and book a time.
