Freja to require biometric ID documents for new sign-ups

Original: Freja kommer att sluta stödja svenska körkort och Skatteverkets ID-kort för nya registreringar. Från slutet av 2026 kräv

Swedish digital identification service Freja will stop accepting Swedish driving licences and Tax Agency ID cards for new registrations. From the end of 2026, users must instead verify their identity with biometric ID documents. The company frames the move as a tightening of requirements aimed at countering identity fraud in digital identification.

Why now: The change affects how Swedes can sign up for a widely used digital ID service and is presented as a response to rising identity fraud.
