How to get a Multicard

Students at Malmö University can apply for a card at one of the card stations once you have registered in your course or programme. The card stations are located at each Faculty or School. There is also a card station for all students at the University Library in Orkanen.

Employees at Malmö University should contact the personnel office at the School/ Faculty or division where they are employed.

You can decide whether or not you want to have your photo on the card. A valid ID is required to obtain a card.

Your card will be activated for access to the university buildings within 24 hours.

If you already have a multicard, you can add the library card function at any of the university libraries.

The card is only valid for university activities. This means that the card is not a valid form of identitification in Sweden (not SIS authorized) and therefore cannot be used as identification for example at a bank or during university tests or exams.

Rules and regulations

As the proprietor of the card you are responsible for its use. The card is personal and may not be loaned to any other person.

When you are on university premises you must present the card for security personnel who patrol our buildings. This applies after office hours Monday to Friday, 24-hours a day on Saturday, Sunday, and holidays, and 24-hours a day in locked buildings.

What if I lose my card?
