Greek citizens can securely upload their national ID and driver’s license onto their smartphone via the Gov.gr Wallet app. The app, a joint initiative of the digital governance, transport, and citizen’s protection ministries that was launched in 2022.
Documents downloaded onto the Gov.gr Wallet app can be used in all transactions where physical documents were used with the ultimate goal to facilitate e-business and e-government services.
However, the wallet cannot be used for travel. Greeks can use it for domestic travel, but documents on the Gov.gr Wallet app are not valid for international trips or travel in the Schengen zone.
An additional advantage of the app is that it provides a secure means for authentication and identification. Users can sign digital documents easily, quickly, and more securely through docs.gov.gr.
The Gov.gr Wallet can be downloaded from app stores for both iOS and Android devices or from wallet.gov.gr.
Once downloaded, users will have to log in with the use of their TaxisNet or web banking codes, and then they will receive a text message for verification for every document uploaded. Documents in the app can be accessed or verified via QR code.
If phone, ID card, or driver’s license is lost, the digital documents in the wallet are canceled.
