Consequently, it should be easier to create a MitID if you live abroad, need a MitID, but do not have a valid Danish passport.
All you will need is a valid passport/ID card and access to a phone that can scan the chip: an iPhone 7 or above or a newer Android phone.
You will continue to be able to use NemID for all public self-service solutions until NemID finally closes on 30 June 2023.
