I do not understand how sign-in works

Basic steps

  1. Open the website where you want to sign in.
  2. Choose sign-in with ID Austria.
  3. Enter your access data.
  4. Confirm the sign-in on your phone if asked.
  5. Then check if you are signed in.

Sign-in has several steps.

This is for your security.

First, you enter your data.

After that, you often confirm on your phone.

This checks if it is really you who wants to sign in.

Important notes

  • Confirm only sign-ins that you started yourself.
  • Do not share your data with others.
  • Read every message calmly.

Next step

If you are unsure, use official help or go to a service office.
