Features of myGovID

15+

To set up a myGovID, you must be at least 15 years old. Some government online services may have additional age restrictions. Check the terms of use for the specific service to see if you are eligible.

Information security

Your personal information will not be shared without your consent. myGovID follows strict guidelines outlined in the Australian Trusted Digital Identity Framework, ensuring the secure collection, storage, and usage of your identity data. The app utilizes encryption technology and the security features of your device, such as fingerprint, face recognition, and password protection. These measures safeguard your identity and prevent unauthorized access to your information.

Tips

🤔️ How to set it up?

Setting up your myGovID is a simple three-step process:

Download the myGovID app
Enter your details – including your full name, date of birth, and a personal email address that only you have access to.
Verify your identity to increase your identity strength. There are three identity strengths – Basic, Standard, or Strong. Increasing your identity strengths allows you to access more services and better protects your identity.

😄 Increase your identity strength.

Enhance your identity strength by verifying your Australian identification documents like passport, driver's license, and Medicare card. These documents undergo verification against existing government records. You also have the option to verify your photo through a one-time face verification check to further strengthen your identity. The app scans your face in real-time to ensure that it belongs to a genuine person who is authorized.
