How easy is it to access that in Denmark though if you're not a citizen? I moved from the UK to Finland and had to: - Visit the Imigration office with my passport (as an EU citizen I might add) where they took a copy - Visit the local registry office with a bit of paper from the above, and my passport, where they took a copy - Visit the tax office with my passport, where they took a copy - Only then could I visit the police station with my passport (where, you guessed it) and/or a bank, with the passport (yes the photocopier worked well there too) in order to get access to the E-ID service. Which I will agree does make e-government superior to that of the UK, but, it was not 'frictionless' in the begining. Also, a lot of EU people get caught out by the first step requiring an appointment which is usually months out (as being non-eu, weirdly you're almost in a better position because you can, or rather have to, get that done before you leave your own country) Completely agree though that even as a citizen and living there all my life (until a couple of years ago) - the 'gas bill/bank statement' thing is a massive PITA. However a lot of places are trying to work out a better system and will use credit reports and fuzzy logic to validate your information to a threshold they're happy with. This is also something the government themselves are working on. Interestingly, as much as the Finnish system has saved me time, I just don't agree with the idea that the government should maintain some centrally accessible and enforceable registry of where everyone lives.
