IDIN will join forces with itsme, the Belgian eID already part of the Signicat portfolio.
The Future of Digital Identity: The Transition from iDIN to itsme® in the Netherlands ↗
What happened
- Itsme becomes available alongside iDIN from 1 June 2026 for customers who download the itsme app.
- The standalone iDIN service will cease on 31 December 2027, with functionality fully replaced by itsme.
- Clients using a custom issuer selection screen must add itsme as a new issuer and replace the logo.
Why it matters to Signicat
- Dutch iDIN customers must migrate to itsme; Signicat's Benelux eID brokering depends on this transition.
