Is that the same as BankID in sweden? That is not 'connected' to the sim card, but to the device itself.

Norway's BankID and Sweden's BankID are different products by different companies that happen to have the same name.

Sweden did briefly have a SIM card-based version of its BankID, but it was quickly replaced with the smartphone app-based “Mobile BankID”.

Really?

In Norway BankID is quite definitely connected to the SIM card.

In Switzerland we have MobileID which is basically the same thing as Norway's Bank If : using a sim card as a smart card.
