"The Nets Passport Reader offers a new secure and frictionless method of digital identification for use in many different scenarios, ranging from the needs of public officials to private companies." comments Kai Olshausen, Senior Business Manager, Nets.

The reader is now being utilised by the Norwegian authorities to address a variety of identification needs for people who don't yet possess a Norwegian eID.​"The use of the Nets Passport Reader has enabled a secure way to remotely authenticate people who need access to online public services," says Stig Slaatto-Hornnes, Product Manager, the Norwegian Digitalisation Agency.

The easy-to-use Nets Passport Reader app has multiple security layers for secure and accurate identification of the person and validation of the passport.
