PIN codes of the ID-card: applying for a new codes envelope

In order to obtain a new code envelope, you need to go to a Police and Border Guard Board service point a foreign representation of the Republic Estonia . Make sure to bring an identity document.

Whenever possible, please choose a mobile ticket before visiting the service.

The applicable fees for the re-issuance of the code envelope can be found on the Police and Border Guard Board website.  We definitely recommend changing automatically issued PIN codes immediately to ones that are easy for you to remember without having to write them down. You can change your PIN codes yourself in the DigiDoc4 application: this is simple and only takes a few minutes. Make sure to take good care of your PIN and PUK codes and keep them safe!

If your ID-card PINs are lost while abroad and returning to Estonia is not possible, you can obtain a new code envelope from a foreign representation of the Republic Estonia.
