Events and News

Bolagsverket, the Swedish Companies Registration Office, and iGrant.io have successfully trialled the issuance of Legal Person Identification Data (LPID) as a verifiable credential, marking a significant milestone in the European Digital Identity Wallet Consortium (EWC) initiative. This trial, aligned with the EU Commission’s Digital Identity Wallet vision, demonstrates how secure and compliant organisational identities can drive trust, innovation, and efficiency across organisations and national borders.

The LPID verifiable credential enables organisations to securely share verified data, request attestations, and conduct transactions across key sectors, including banking, e-commerce, healthcare, and government services. Designed to meet the EU’s 2026 digital identity mandate, the LPID aligns with the eIDAS 2.0 amendments, the Architectural Reference Framework (ARF), and the EU Digital Identity Wallet Implementing Acts, supporting Europe’s broader digital transformation goals.

A Secure and Streamlined Process

The trial demonstrated how company representatives can authenticate using national e-IDs to request and receive LPIDs. Verified organisations are issued the LPID in a secure SD-JWT format, stored directly in their digital wallet. This streamlined process ensures seamless and trustworthy digital interactions for businesses across borders.

David Magård, Senior Advisor (Bolagsverket) and Coordinator (EWC), commented: “As lead coordinators of the EWC, we see the Organisation Wallet as key to building business trust and security in digital ecosystems. The LPID issuance trial enables organisations to share verified data confidently and securely across borders.”

Lotta Lundin, CEO of iGrant.io, stated: “The LPID issuance trial is a significant step towards building trusted ecosystems using digital wallet technology, empowering businesses with secure and interoperable identities while aligning with EU legislation.”

Why It Matters

For businesses, data tied to organisational identities simplifies KYC compliance, enhances trust in data exchange ecosystems, and unlocks opportunities for innovation. The trial addresses the requirements outlined by the EU Commission, including the eIDAS 2.0 amendments and the European Digital Identity Wallet Implementing Acts.
