Published date:
The European Commission has confirmed that Two‑Factor Authentication (2FA) for EU Login accounts on the Horizon Europe Funding & Tenders Portal will become mandatory for most users in the first quarter of 2026. This security upgrade will help protect sensitive project and funding data.
What does this mean for you?
Starting soon, logging in will require:
Your usual EU Login credentials
A second verification step (e.g., mobile app or passkey)
What you need to do now:
If you haven’t already, set up 2FA in your EU Login account. Guidance is available on the EU Login Help page.
Why is this important?
2FA significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access, ensuring compliance and safeguarding research collaborations.

Please prepare now to ensure uninterrupted portal access when 2FA becomes mandatory next year.
