What do I do, if I  suspect that someone has access to my MitID? 

If you suspect that someoe has accessed your MitID via the self-service universe on MitID.dk, contact MitID support immediately to get your MitID blocked for the moment, or contact Agency for Digital Government hotline for digital identity theft on (+45) 33 98 00 98.

  • Never share your MitID app*, code display or audio code reader with anyone else.
  • Never share your use ID with anyone else - except with MitID support if you contact them personally. 
  • Never approve anything with MitID based on a phone call, e-mail or a visit from anyone purporting to be from bank, MitID support etc. You will never be contacted in that way.
