How to use UiO ID to get your access card

Download the app via the checklist in My studies. To use the app, you need a valid Norwegian passport or national ID card.

  1. Scan your ID document
    • Use your phone’s camera and point it at the ID document to read the information. You can only scan Norwegian passports or national ID cards.
  2. Read the chip
    • Hold the ID document close to your phone to read the embedded chip.
  3. Submit the photo
    • The app retrieves the photo automatically. You then send it to the Card Centre for printing of your access card.
  4. Complete your order
    • Return to the checklist in My Studies to order the access card, choose a pickup location, and receive a notification when the card is ready.
