About the Digital Mailbox
Individuals and legal entities have their own digital mailbox. It publishes specific personal information and messages from the government to individuals and companies.
According to the three-year plan and the law on digital mailboxes, all public entities are required to offer digital publications from January 1, 2025. The law establishes the government's vision that the main channel of communication with individuals and legal entities will be digital and centralized in one place, through the Digital Mailbox on Ísland.is.
The digital mailbox is a closed area on Ísland.is. It publishes and stores specific personal information and messages from the government to individuals and companies. All individuals and companies with an Icelandic ID number (including system ID) have their own mailbox.
How do companies open their Digital Mailbox?
Power of attorney holders of companies open the mailbox with their personal electronic ID, and switch to their company's profile on My Pages. The power of attorney holder can grant access to the mailbox to others at the company, with the Authorisation system. Skatturinn registers of power of attorney holders.
