You do not use the deceased's DigiD

DigiD is personal. The account belongs to one living person and ends when that person dies. An heir does not take over DigiD, not even once, and not even to see an allowance (toeslag) or a letter. Logging in as the deceased is not a shortcut in the executorship. The file may record that there was a DigiD. No more than that belongs in it: no username, no password, no SMS code, and no recovery email. The life file follows the same boundary while someone is alive. It may note that DigiD exists. It does not store the particulars with which you log in. After the death that boundary remains.

The route is the declaration of the death, not a login. The municipality processes the death in the register, and that register is the channel through which government bodies are supposed to hear the news. This piece does not describe every link and invents no period within which every desk has been updated. In the file you record that DigiD is not used, and that the death runs through the ordinary declaration. If post still arrives that asks for an action with DigiD, you write to the desk without logging in. You explain that the person has died and you ask which paper they want to have outside DigiD. You keep the reply with that body, not in a shared password field.

A task that says take over DigiD does not belong on the list. The task says: do not log in, do note that the account existed, and let the death run along the declaration. If someone finds a letter with a code, or a letter that asks for activation, that letter does not go into the portal as an aid. Note that the letter is there, and which desk you have asked, outside DigiD, what should be done with it. Ervazo keeps that letter and the reply. It does not send them. It also does not become a vault for codes. A code in a note that heirs can read is exactly the mistake this piece wants to prevent.

You do not use the deceased's DigiD, not even with good intentions and not even once. The file and the life file may mention that the account existed. They do not store the login particulars. The declaration of death is the route, not a screen with a username. Anyone who logs in anyway obtains particulars in a way the file cannot account for, and that does not replace the register. This is not legal advice. That the death enters the register is confirmed by the municipality through the declaration. What a desk still wants on paper after that is confirmed by that desk. The notary does not confirm a DigiD and does not ask for access to one.
