Estonia prepares an official digital identity for AI agents

General News

Summary

Estonia wants to create official digital identities for autonomous AI agents. The goal is to let agents act on behalf of people or organizations with limited, verifiable, and auditable permissions. The plan extends Estonia’s long-running digital government model, which already emphasizes electronic identity, digital signatures, and traceability. Authorities have not announced a deployment timeline yet, so the initiative remains at the proposal stage.
