Invalid QR code. You have scanned an enrolment QR code! (Error 5304)

Invalid QR code. You scanned the QR code for authentication. Please follow the tutorial and use a different verification method! (Error 5305)
Please see the different scenarios below:

  • You have no device registered and try to authenticate with one
    Please follow the EU Login tutorial to add the device and then authenticate with it.

 

 

  • You had the device registered but the EU Login app was reinstalled or a reset on the device was performed resulting into a broken link between the device and the EU Login account.
    In case the link between your device and your EU Login account is broken, your device is considered as a "new" device, you will therefore have to remove your mobile device from your EU Login account first and then add it as if it was new. Please refer to the corresponding entries of this FAQ to do so (see I reinstalled the EU Login mobile app and/or my device is broken, was stolen or I replaced it).
