1.16.1.0 Safe to install
Effortless Access to Australian Government Services
myGovID simplifies the way Australians verify their identity online, making it easy to access government services securely.
The myGovID app is an essential tool provided by the Australian Government for individuals to authenticate their digital identity and securely access government online services. It distinguishes itself from the myGov platform as a unique sign-in method for myGov accounts.
Setting up your myGovID is a straightforward process involving three simple steps:
- Download the myGovID app
- Enter your personal details, including your full name, date of birth, and a personal email address that only you can access
- Verify your identity to enhance your identity strength. You have the option to choose between Basic, Standard, or Strong identity strengths. By verifying your Australian identity documents, such as your passport, driver’s license, and Medicare card, against existing government records, you can increase your identity strength. Additionally, you can further strengthen your identity through a one-time face verification check using your photo.
Please note that you must be at least 15 years old to create a myGovID account. However, certain government online services may have additional age restrictions. To determine if you meet the eligibility criteria for a specific service, please refer to its terms of use.
Rest assured that your personal information will not be shared without your consent. myGovID adheres to the strict regulations outlined in the Australian Trusted Digital Identity Framework, which governs the collection, storage, and usage of identity data. The app employs robust encryption technology and leverages the security features of your device, such as fingerprint, face recognition, and password protection. These measures aim to safeguard your identity and prevent unauthorized access to your information.
It is crucial to note that your myGovID is unique to you and should not be shared with others.
