Mobile phone number - Being phased out

You may add one or more mobile phone numbers to your EU Login account so to receive one-time-passwords via SMS. Note however that this verification method was assessed  as being not secure enough, and will therefore be removed in the future. 

Please prefer alternative verification methods presented above.

For internal users, please note that your phone number is managed through your HR system (SYSPER, Streamline...).
