Mobiil-ID is a person's identification and digital signing solution for mobile phone. It can be used for making the same procedures as with an ID card, but even more conveniently.
In order to obtain a SIM card ready for Mobiil-ID and to enter into a contract, please first contact your mobile telecommunication operator. Without a valid Mobiil-ID contract you will not be able to activate the Mobiil-ID. Thereafter you need to activate the Mobiil-ID in the application environment provided below or in Service Office.
If your ID card certificates are suspended, please update your ID card certificates. After updating the certificates, you can activate your Mobiil-ID in the application environment. Please see the instructions for remote update here.
If remote update of your ID card was unsuccessful, please contact the service of the Police and Border Guard Board.
The state fee for Mobiil-ID is 10 euros, and it is paid by the operator for you. For additional information, please contact your mobile service provider.
The Mobiil-ID certificates are valid for up to 5 years. Mobiil-ID will be issued with maximum validity if the technical solution of the data carrier (SIM card) corresponds to the conditions required for the safe use of the document within five years. A Mobiil-ID cannot be applied for via a representative.
If your personal data has changed, please contact your mobile service provider for revocation of the certificates of your Mobiil-ID and for applying for a Mobiil-ID SIM card with new personal data.

- an ID card, residence card or digi-ID with the PIN1 and PIN2 codes and valid certificates
