Create your BMW ID

Log in to BMW ConnectedDrive

In BMW vehicles from 2014, a SIM card is permanently installed and always active. This SIM card is the basic prerequisite for the use of ConnectedDrive as well as the fulfillment of legal requirements such as the legal emergency call.
For the provision of ConnectedDrive services such as BMW Intelligent Emergency Call, Concierge Service, Teleservice, etc., data is exchanged between the vehicle and BMW via the mobile network and processed at BMW for service provision.

For more detailed information on which data is involved in each individual case, please refer to the legal information on data protection.

If you do not want to use the ConnectedDrive offers, you can have your SIM card deactivated. Please contact your BMW dealer for this purpose.

In addition to an active SIM card, you need a BMW ID to access all BMW ConnectedDrive services.

• Save your vehicles and configurations.
  
• Book and use ConnectedDrive services.
  
• Maintain your profile data.
  

After creating a BMW ID, you have the option to add your vehicle to your BMW ID and use the BMW ConnectedDrive range of services.  

Requirements for adding your vehicle to your BMW ID are an active SIM card and a BMW ID (registration).
Adding the vehicle gives you the ability to view your vehicle in the My BMW app or My BMW portal and use digital services*, such as:

• Check vehicle status
  
• Send destination to vehicle
  
• Find vehicle via smartphone
  
• BMW Digital Key
  
• and much more!
