Download Card Reader Software

Digital and Population Data Services Agency offers card reader software free of charge to users of the citizen or organisation certificates it issues.

Atostek ID is DVV's new card reader software, the first version of which was published in late 2024. We recommend that our customers using certificate cards transfer to Atostek ID according to their technical requirements, but no later than in 2026.

DigiSign Client is DVV's previous card reader software that will be available to our customers until the end of 2026. However, no new features are actively developed for the DigiSign Client version distributed by DVV. The development work focuses mainly on bug correction instead. This is why we recommend that our customers switch to Atostek ID.

To get access to the card reader software, accept the licensing terms during installation. We recommend that you use the most recent version of the card reader software.

Installing older versions of the card reader software or third party middleware software on the same computer may result in compatibility issues. This also applies to the simultaneous use of DigiSign Client and Atostek ID. Such use is at the user’s own risk, and DVV does not provide technical support for compatibility issues stemming from such use.

Older Windows versions than 10 are no longer supported. Card reader software may work with Windows 7, but the operating system’s support has ended in 2020 which means its use cannot be recommended for information security reasons. The functionality of the card reader software is no longer tested with Windows 7.
