Furthermore, a single sign-on solution allows citizens to receive and access information and services from several agencies, without having to log on several times.

The Data Distributor is the main channel for accessing basic data from several authorities. It replaces a series of public distribution solutions, and ensures that authorities and companies are provided with easy and safe access to basic data in one collective system, rather than resorting to many different systems and interfaces. By now, the Data Distributor samples a unique variety of basic data, e.g. civil registration numbers, registered data on land, properties, parcels and buildings, registered data on companies, registered data on addresses, administrative divisions and place names, geographical base maps, geodata, etc. More data will be constantly made available on the Data Distributor.

A NemKonto is a normal bank account that a citizen or a company already has and assigns as NemKonto. All payments from public institutions in Denmark, such as tax or VAT refunds, pensions or social welfare payments, are transferred directly to the citizen’s or company’s NemKonto through the NemKonto system. All citizens and companies registered in Demark are required to have a NemKonto to receive public payments. Enterprises, such as insurance companies or private employers, are also able to make payments to a NemKonto.
