Digitally signing documents with the RIA DigiDoc mobile app is very easy. The signing process works the same for both mobile-ID and ID-card users – follow the instructions on screen and everything will go smoothly.
Step 1: Open application and select signed files
Open the RIA DigiDoc application on your smart device and from there select „Signature” from the menu at the bottom of the screen. The signing view opens, where you can choose which documents you want to sign. To add a file, click on the „CHOOSE FILE” button.
To add files to the envelope, click the „+ ADD MORE FILES” button. All attached files are signed at once and can be shared later as a single signed envelope. You can add exactly as many files as you want.
Step 2: Check and sign
In the „Container verification” main view of RIA DigiDoc, under the „Container files” option, you can see all the documents that will be signed with this signature envelope.
Under „Container signatures” you will see the names of all the signers.
If you initiate the signing, only your name will be there.
If you wanted to give your signature to a document envelope already digitally signed by others, you can also see the information of other signers here.
Make sure everything is correct and click the „SIGN” button.
A small window will appear on the screen where you can select the method of digital signature
You can sign using mobile-ID, Smart-ID or ID-card (via NFC or connecting the ID-card to a card reader connected to a mobile device).

Show Hide By selecting „ID-card“, you must use an ID-card and a card reader connected to a smart device to sign, while by choosing „NFC“, you can sign contactless with the ID card, i.e. without a card reader. Read more about the NFC solution here.
Signing with ID-card using NFC
When signing with an ID-card using NFC in the RIA DigiDoc application, you will be asked for the ID-card's access number (CAN) and the ID-card's PIN2 code. The CAN number is a 6-digit code that is located under your picture on the ID-card. Enter the CAN and PIN2 code and press „SIGN“. Be careful: if you repeatedly enter the CAN number incorrectly (10 times in total), the NFC part of the card may be locked. When the CAN number and PIN2 are entered, a new view „Keep the ID-card near the phone“ will appear.
After that, hold the ID-card in front of the phone until the card is read. As a rule, the phone's NFC reader is located on the top of the phone near the camera(s). NB! If the phone has a cover around it, it may prevent contactless connection to the ID-card. If your phone can connect to the ID card, successive views will appear: Contactless connection to the ID-card -> Read the certificate -> Sign the envelope -> Signature added.
Signing with ID-card and card reader
In order to use your ID-card in the RIA DigiDoc application, you need card reader that is compatible with your smart device.
