Getting your NemID

NemID is your digital signature and a single login for public websites, online banking and many other websites. NemID consists of a user ID, a password and a code card (one-time codes).

Apply for your NemID

To apply for NemID, you must: 

• Be at least 15 years old
• Have a CPR number

Book an online appointment at a citizen service centre and bring: 

• Your yellow Health Card OR your preliminary income statement (Forskudsopgørelse)

The code card will be sent to you by ordinary post.
