Volvo ID
Volvo ID provides access to a wide range of personalized Volvo services1 online.
It is important to create a Volvo ID from the car, Volvo On Call mobile app2 or My Volvo3 . Some functions and services require the car to be registered to a personal Volvo ID. Registering the Volvo ID to the car makes a wide range of Volvo services available directly from the car.
Examples of services:
- My Volvo - A personal web page for you and your car.
- Volvo On Call, VOC* - A Volvo ID is used when logging in to the Volvo On Call mobile app.
- Send to Car - Makes it possible to send an address from an Internet map service directly to the car.
- Book Service and Repair - Register your preferred workshop/dealer in My Volvo to be able to book service directly from the car.
Creating a Volvo ID
If there is already an existing Volvo ID, e.g. created in another car, please refer to the section "Registering your Volvo ID to the car".
