BankID

BankID is one of Sweden's most common e-IDs. It allows you to securely verify your identity online and is widely used for a variety of services, including online banking, government services, e-commerce, and other online transactions. It also allows users to sign documents and agreements digitally, which are legally binding and recognized by authorities.

You can use your BankID to log in to do your online banking, via mobile app or on "Mina sidor" (computer). In addition to this, you can also use your BankID to send money using Swish, submit your tax declaration, register the care of a child (VAB), make changes to parental benefits, change your address, and register a company.

BankID is Free

Länsförsäkringar is one of several banks in Sweden that issue BankID to their customers. It is free, and you can choose between two types of BankID:
