Signatory authority

The account holder can register their own account signatory in the online bank. The account signatory must be registered and identified at DNB before the authorisation is registered in the online bank or sent to us by regular post.

Without online banking

For customers without online banking, a form needs to be filled in and sent to us by regular post. The form must be signed by the account holder and witnessed by two people of legal age. The witnesses cannot be a spouse/cohabitant, parent or child/grandchild of the authorised user. It will take 1-2 weeks before the account signatory is registered on the account.

Do you want to assist with in-store purchases? If so, you may be able to keep a card in your own name on the account you manage. Cards can be ordered from the account holder’s online bank in the menu item Everyday banking and loans – Order card.

If the account holder does not use online banking, you can contact us by phone on 915 04800. Unfortunately, when ordering cards and other products, we cannot assist if other family members are calling on behalf of the account holder.

A future power of attorney gives you the opportunity to decide who will safeguard your finances and your personal interests if you are not able to do this yourself in the future. Future power of attorney is an alternative to guardianship. It is important that the authorisation is adapted to your situation and wishes, and that it complies with the requirements for content and design.

There is a lot of useful information about this on the website of the County Governor -Statsforvalterens. We recommend that you become familiar with this. In order for the future authorisation to be valid for financial matters at DNB, it must be confirmed by the County Governor -Statsforvalterens.
