What is the Digital Post app in Denmark?

Your official mailbox on the phone.

Answered at: Checked at:

Short answer

The Digital Post app is a shared public app for reading the letters Danish authorities send you digitally. You receive Digital Post from public authorities from the age of 15, and the same post can be read in the app, on borger.dk, on e-Boks and on mit.dk. Whatever you read, answer, send or delete on one platform shows on the others. You log in with MitID. Post from private companies only appears on the platform where the company has an agreement with you.

Why

  1. One public mailbox can be read in four places.
  2. Letters from authorities arrive digitally from age 15.
  3. Changes on one platform show on the others.

Details

e-Boks and mit.dk are run by the companies e-Boks A/S and Netcompany A/S, while borger.dk and the Digital Post app are shared public platforms.

Tip

Turn on notifications in the app settings so you notice new letters from authorities.

What may differ

Post from companies such as a bank is not shared across platforms, so it may only appear in e-Boks or mit.dk.

Common misconception

You need e-Boks to read letters from Danish authorities.

What actually happens

Public Digital Post can also be read in the Digital Post app, on borger.dk or on mit.dk.
