Assigning a NemKonto

If you want your NemKonto to be an account with a Danish bank, please contact your bank or log onto the self-service solution using MitID at nemkonto.dk and assign the account.

With MitID

The easiest way to assign a foreign account as your NemKonto is by using your personal MitID in our self-service solution. Click ‘Log ind som borger’ (Log in as citizen) in the box to the right and then navigate to the site ‘Udenlandsk NemKonto’ (Foreign NemKonto). Then you can assign a foreign bank account as your NemKonto by filling in the fields and pressing ‘Gem’ (Save).

Please note that not all countries use IBAN and BIC (SWIFT). In those cases, please fill in the fields ‘Kontonummer’ (Account number) and ‘Bankkode’ (Bank code) and, where relevant, ‘BIC-kode’ (BIC code).

Without MitID

If you do not have MitID and want a foreign bank account as your NemKonto, please send the following documentation to the Agency for Digital Government:

1. NemKonto form for citizens signed in the presence of and attested by a notary, lawyer or two witnesses – find the form here (pdf).
2. Copy of official and valid identification papers.

Please send the documentation either via the contact form or by postal service: 

You can send your documentation via this contact form.

Alternatively, you can send the documentation by postal service to the following address:

If you report a NemKonto on behalf of someone else, it is referred to as a so-called third-party assignment.

For a third-party assignment, in addition to the registration form above, a power of attorney from the citizen is required, authorizing you to designate a NemKonto on their behalf. The power of attorney must be translated into Danish or English. This applies to auditors, but not to legal representation by lawyers.

The power of attorney must include:

• The registration and account number or IBAN and SWIFT (or similar) to be designated as the NemKonto
• Notarization or signatures from two witnesses who confirm both the grantor's and the grantee's identity.

In addition, a copy of valid identification for the grantor(s) and grantee must be sent.

Please send the documentation either by physical mail or via the contact form:
