You can add a new company within your Digidentity account by starting a new eHerkenning registration. Because eHerkenning is always linked both to a specific Chamber of Commerce (KvK) number and to an individual user, each company and each person requires their own eHerkenning credential.
You therefore pay the registration costs per person and per company.
It is advisable to do this within an existing account. Using different accounts for different companies is not recommended.
Follow these steps to add an authorisation on behalf of a new company:
- Log into your Digidentity account via my.digidentity.eu
- Click on the 'Products' tab.
- Scroll down to 'Available Products'
- Select the required eHerkenning product, click on 'Buy Now' and follow the registration process.
- The system will check if your personal information is up-to-date. If it is not, you will be prompted to provide the necessary updates.
- Enter the KVK number and the business email address of the relevant organisation.
- Download the letter(s) and arrange for your authorised signatory to submit them via the Digidentity Wallet app.
Once you have completed this, you can also select the newly registered company when logging into your account.
Please note: If you wish to authorise a sole proprietorship of which you are not the owner at eHerkenning Level 3 or 4, the owner must also be registered for eHerkenning.
