How to activate the Mobile ID SIM on your mobile phone.

Mobile ID SIM is a 2-factor authentication solution that enables secure approval for qualified electronic signatures (signature approval means). It is already pre-installed on a Swiss SIM card with a valid Swiss mobile number and supported by Switzerland's largest telecommunication providers.

During the activation process, you set a 6-digit Mobile ID Pin for future signature approval.

Kindly note: If you get identified and registered by an RA agent for the electronic signature, please activate the Mobile ID app BEFORE the identification process.
