Age Verification with MitID
Since October 1, 2024, Danish webshops selling alcohol, tobacco, nicotine products, and e-cigarettes to consumers must use an effective IT system for age verification. The customer’s age must be verified before the sale is completed. With Signaturgruppen, you can implement a MitID-based solution that helps you document an effective method for online age verification.
Depending on your implementation, MitID age verification can also help minimize the amount of personal data you need to process.
Verify Your Customer's Age
With age verification using MitID, you can quickly and easily check if your customers meet the legal age requirements for their purchases.

Easy for Your Customers
Choosing MitID for age verification gives your customers a familiar digital flow and gives your business a documented electronic age check.
Inform Your Customers
As part of the solution, you can clearly inform customers about the age verification flow and what data is processed in connection with the check.
MitID Age Verification
Why is age verification important?
In 2024, the Danish Parliament adopted new rules requiring webshops that sell alcohol, tobacco, nicotine products, and e-cigarettes to consumers to use an effective IT system for age verification. These rules have applied since October 1, 2024.
The age check must confirm electronically that the customer is above the relevant age limit, and it must happen before the sale is completed. A simple pop-up asking whether the customer is over 18 is no longer sufficient.
By choosing MitID, you offer customers a familiar and secure way to complete a digital age check.
