Australian Government Digital ID: Who Qualifies and What You Get

Learn how the Australian Government Digital ID helps you prove your identity securely when accessing services online.

The Australian Government Digital ID is a secure way to prove your identity when you are interacting with services online.

Who it's for

This scheme is available to all citizens.

What you get

It provides you with a secure method to verify who you are digitally. This allows you to access various online services without having to repeatedly provide physical documents or repeat the same identity checks.

What it costs you

There is no direct monetary cost to use the system, but you will need to go through a process of verifying your identity using your official documents.

The catch to know

While the system is growing, it is not universal. Not all services or organizations accept the Digital ID yet, so you may still need traditional ways to prove your identity in some instances.

How to apply

  1. Visit the official website to learn about the available identity providers.
  2. Follow the prompts to verify your identity using your documents.
  3. Use your digital credentials to sign in to participating services.
