Verify your identity
We verify both businesses and individuals when you create an account with us. This ensures a high level of security for the ID06 card.
Please present your passport or national ID card
Effective January 28, 2026, stricter security requirements apply when ordering an ID06 card. To complete your order, you must verify your identity using a passport or a national ID card that is valid as a travel document within the EU.
Why a passport or national ID card?
The reason is simple—these documents contain information about citizenship, which is crucial because the right to work in Sweden is based precisely on citizenship or a work permit. Citizenship also determines how long an ID06 card is valid.
Here's how it works:
- Swedish citizen – the card is valid for 5 years
- Citizens of a European country who pay taxes in their home country – the card is valid for 6 months
- Citizens from a country outside the EU – the card is valid for 3 months
Depending on your country of citizenship and the country where your business is registered, different validity periods may apply.
This requirement ensures that the correct regulations are applied, that identities are verified, and that workplaces where ID06 is used maintain a high level of security and control.

If Freja eID isn't working – for foreign nationals
If you are a foreign national and encounter problems verifying your identity with Freja eID—and the verification process cannot be completed—it may be because you have previously registered a coordination number in the Freja eID app.
In that case, you’ll need to start over from the beginning. Uninstall the Freja eID app from your phone and reinstall it. Once you’ve reinstalled the app, follow the registration steps in Freja eID and do not enter a coordination number. To verify your identity, scan a valid passport or national ID card that is accepted as a travel document within the EU.
If you are a citizen of a country outside the EU/EEA (third country), you cannot use Freja eID to verify your identity when ordering an ID06 card. Instead, you will need to visit an ID06 scanning office to complete the identity verification process. You can find ID06 scanning offices here
Please note: This information applies to foreign citizens who use Freja eID to verify their identity when ordering an ID06 card.
Here's how to do it
Below you will find step-by-step instructions based on your citizenship.
Select an option:
Verification of personal identification numbers and coordination numbers
Verification of Coordination Numbers or Personal Identification Numbers
On February 9, we launched a feature for automatically verifying personal identification numbers and coordination numbers against the SPAR database for non-Swedish citizens. Here is more information about how the feature works and what you need to know – click here
Do you have a coordination number?
You can use Freja eID to confirm an ID06 card order.
Note:Do not enter your coordination number in the Freja app. You should only register a passport or national ID card. Once that’s done, you can approve your ID06 card order.
