90% of passwords can be cracked with as less as six tries by hackers. How strong is your password? Add a second step to keep your data on Europass safer. Add the two-factor authentication step to log in to Europass.

Like with many other services aiming at protecting your data from theft, two-factor authentication is now also compulsory for you when entering your Europass account.

Your mobile device or your eID is enough to set up your two-step login process for your Europass:

  • Download the EU login app
  • Connect the EU login app and your EU login account using a QR code
  • Add a code or scan your fingerprint

And there you have it! A quick and safe access to your Europass account.
