Ukrainians were reminded how to create a Diia.Signature in just a few minutes.

“A digital signature has the same legal force as a handwritten one. Sign documents online, receive government services, and send copies of documents without paper and additional devices,” Diia reminded.

To activate, you will need a smartphone with NFC and one of the biometric documents:

- ID card

- biometric international passport

- residence permit

How to create a Diia.Signature?

1. Open the Diia app and go to Menu → Diia.Signature → Activate signature.

2. Scan the code on the document:

▪️ on the back of the ID card or residence permit;

▪️ on the first page of the international passport.

3. Read the document via NFC.

4. Complete PhotoID to verify your identity.

5. Create a six-digit PIN code.

“Done. After activation, confirm the signature only with the PIN code — no repeated photo verification needed.

If you activate Diia.Signature abroad and encounter an error — try enabling a VPN with a Ukrainian server,” Diia added.
