How to get a LiU-card?

Preparations

To obtain a LiU-card is very easy: come to a LiU-card station where we will take your picture and print the card immediately. The card is gratis. This is what you need to do:

1. Register on a course or program at Linköpings University, at least one day before you can get a LiU-card. You can register yourself in the Student Portal.
2. Pick up the card at any one of our LiU-card stations. It will be printed while you wait. Foreigners without a Swedish civil registration number ("personnummer") must identify themselves at the LiU-card station by showing a valid passport. Citizens from countries within the Schengen Area of the European Union may also identify themselves with a national ID-card or driving licence.
3. Activate the card. Activation happens when you activate you LiU-ID (your computer account, which you will get at the same time as you get the card), and you must then agree to the following agreement. Before activation the card is inert and none of its functions will work.
