The Danish Agency for Digitalization under the Ministry of Finance has been cooking a huge change for some time now. NemID will transform, or better yet, upgrade to MitID – a more secure and more able to face the digital challenges we face today and leave room for improvement for the future of cybersecurity.
This “takeover” has already started from August 2021 and will take place gradually throughout 2022, until all the people will be invited to make the change. You will receive an invitation from your bank (which is responsible for transferring its customers from NemID to MitID) either on your online banking page or via digital post (E-boks). Keep in mind that you might need to wait a bit to get the invitation, so no need to contact your bank about this beforehand. MitID will be used for the same purpose as NemID.
