Ice key

New, now, individuals can activate the Electronic ID anywhere in the world. Most people should therefore be able to use the Electronic ID instead of the IceKey.

The Identification App is an easy, convenient and secure way to identify yourself on the web and perform qualified electronic signatures. The app can be used anywhere in the world, independently of telephone companies on both Icelandic and foreign mobile phone numbers.

• In the latest version of the The Identification App you can activate electronic identification with self-service, anywhere in the world.

IceKey is an authentication method that was published before the arrival of the Electronic ID, they are more secure and will take over from IceKey entirely in the future. If an individual has the option to use the Electronic ID, that option shall always be chosen over IceKey.
