Mobile-ID is a SIM-based electronic identity service used in Estonia and Lithuania that stores signing keys on a special SIM card and authenticates users through a matching verification code and PIN1 entered on their phone. It provides businesses with signed identity data including a user’s name, personal code, date of birth in Estonian flows, assurance level, and optionally a verified phone number, but not an address, nationality, or photo. Estonia treats Mobile-ID as part of its EU-notified eID scheme at the High assurance level, while Lithuania recognizes it nationally at High but has not notified it under eIDAS. More than 220,000 people used the service in Estonia as of August 2026, while Lithuania reported 469,130 certificates at the end of 2025 rather than a confirmed user count. Businesses can connect directly through SK ID Solutions or through identity providers, using Mobile-ID for login, electronic signing, KYC, AML, gambling identity, and age-related checks, though legal suitability depends on jurisdiction and use case. Applicants in Estonia need an Estonian ID card, operator rules may limit access for minors, and businesses are advised to maintain document-based verification alternatives for unsupported users and missing data. Estonian users must replace older Mobile-ID SIM cards before 19 May 2027 to continue signing and authentication, while no equivalent Lithuanian deadline was confirmed.
