Two-factor authentication (2FA)

Previously, FinanzOnline login worked either using ID Austria or a user name and password. From 1 October 2025, login using two-factor authentication (2FA) will be mandatory for all those who have previously only logged in with a user name and password. Therefore, these changes affect all those who do not use ID Austria for FinanzOnline login.

From 1 October 2025, it will be mandatory to use a second factor (confirmation code) for login. The confirmation code will be generated in an authenticator app (e.g., Microsoft Authenticator, Google Authenticator, Apple Passwords) on an additional device (e.g., smartphone or other hardware) or in a dedicated software solution. This measure serves to increase the security level for access to FinanzOnline.

Further information and video tutorials on setting up 2FA can be found on the website of the Federal Ministry of Finance.
