Connect your non-Danish eID to your Danish CPR Number

How to

Connect automatically

• Click ’Continue with non-Danish eID’.
• Select your country and follow the instructions.
• Fill in your CPR number and your email address.
• If the automatic match is not possible, please follow the steps to either use MitID or proceed to a manual connection (see below).
• If the match is succesful, you will receive an email from the Agency for Digital Government (identitymatching@digst.dk). You will then automatically be redirected to the digital service you were trying to access, and now you can use your non-Danish eID in Denmark.

MitID alternative if automatic connection fails (continuation from process above):

• Continue to MitID match. If you have MitID, you can log in to create an automatic match between your Danish CPR number and your non-Danish eID.
• If you do not have MitID, check the 'I do not have a MitID' box, and continue.

Connect manually

If your application could not be processed automatically, you will be directed to follow the manual process. A link to the manual application form will be presented in the self-service if the automatic and MitID options failed.

Before starting the manual application process, please have the following ready:

• Your passport or your national ID card.
• Your Danish CPR number (find it for instance on your Danish tax papers).
• A smartphone to take pictures of the necessary documentation.

Step-by-step:

• Follow the link to manual application.
• Select your country and follow the instructions.
• Fill in the application.
• Submit the required documentation.
• You will receive an email from the Agency for Digital Government (identitymatching@digst.dk) when the connection is completed. If the Agency needs additional information, they will write to you and request that you update your application.
