It can be used instead of a passport for travel inside the European Union and several other countries outside the EU. </p><p>Another ID card is the Provisional ID Card (<b>Cartea de Identitate Provizorie</b>) issued temporarily when an individual cannot get a normal ID card.

The ID card is mandatory for dealing with government institutions, banks or currency exchange shops. A valid passport may also be accepted, but usually only for foreigners. </p><p>In addition, citizens can be expected to provide the personal identification number (CNP) in many circumstances; purposes range from simple unique identification and internal book-keeping (for example when drawing up the papers for the warranty of purchased goods) to being asked for identification by the police. The CNP is 13 characters long, with the format S-YY-MM-DD-RR-XXX-Y. Where S is the sex, YY is year of birth, MM is month of birth, DD is day of birth, RR is a regional id, XXX is a unique random number and Y is a control digit. </p><p>Presenting the ID card is preferred but not mandatory when asked by police officers; however, in such cases people are expected to provide a CNP or alternate means of identification which can be checked on the spot (via radio if needed). </p><p>The information on the ID card is required to be kept updated by the owner, current address of domicile in particular. Doing otherwise can expose the citizen to certain fines or be denied service by those institutions that require a valid, up to date card. In spite of this, it is common for people to let the information lapse or go around with expired ID cards. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading5"><h5 id="Slovakia">Slovakia</h5></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Slovak_identity_card" title="Slovak identity card">Slovak identity card</a></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:SK_Biometric_ID_card_specimen.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/27/SK_Biometric_ID_card_specimen.jpg/220px-SK_Biometric_ID_card_specimen.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="143" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/27/SK_Biometric_ID_card_specimen.jpg/330px-SK_Biometric_ID_card_specimen.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/27/SK_Biometric_ID_card_specimen.jpg/440px-SK_Biometric_ID_card_specimen.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1177" data-file-height="767" /></a><figcaption>Slovak ID card (front)</figcaption></figure> <p>The Slovak ID card (<a href="/wiki/Slovak_language" title="Slovak language">Slovak</a>: <i>Občiansky preukaz</i>) is a picture ID in <a href="/wiki/Slovakia" title="Slovakia">Slovakia</a>.

However, ID-cards are regularly used to ascertain a person's identity when completing certain transactions. These include but are not limited to banking and age verification. Also, interactions with public authorities often require it, in spite of the fact that there is no law explicitly requiring it, because there are laws requiring authorities to somehow verify people's identity. Without Swedish identity documents difficulties can occur accessing health care services, receiving prescription medications and getting salaries or grants. From 2008, EU passports have been accepted for these services due to EU legislation (with exceptions including banking), but non-EU passports are not accepted. Identity cards have therefore become an important part of everyday life. </p><p>There are currently three public authorities that issue ID-cards: the <a href="/wiki/Swedish_Tax_Agency" title="Swedish Tax Agency">Swedish Tax Agency</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Swedish_Police_Authority" title="Swedish Police Authority">Swedish Police Authority</a>, and the <a href="/wiki/Swedish_Transport_Agency" title="Swedish Transport Agency">Swedish Transport Agency</a>. </p><p>The Tax Agency cards can only be used within Sweden to validate a person's identity, but they can be obtained both by Swedish citizens and those that currently reside in Sweden. A <a href="/wiki/Personal_identity_number_(Sweden)" title="Personal identity number (Sweden)">Swedish personal identity number</a> is required. It is possible to get one without having any Swedish ID-card. In this case a person holding such a card must guarantee the identity, and the person must be a verifiable relative or the boss at the company the person has been working or a few other verifiable people. </p><p>The Police can only issue identity documents to Swedish citizens. They issue an internationally recognised id-card according to EU standard usable for intra-<a href="/wiki/Europe" title="Europe">European</a> travel, and Swedish passports which are acceptable as identity documents worldwide.<sup id="cite_ref-Swedpolice_119-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Swedpolice-119"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>118<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The Transport Agency issues <a href="/wiki/Drivers_licence" class="mw-redirect" title="Drivers licence">driving licences</a>, which are valid as identity documents in Sweden. To obtain one, one must be approved as a driver and strictly have another Swedish identity document as proof of identity. </p><p>In the past there have been certain groups that have experienced problems obtaining valid identification documents. This was due to the initial process that was required to validate one's identity, unregulated security requirements by the commercial companies which issued them. Since July 2009, the Tax Agency has begun to issue ID-cards, which has simplified the identity validation process for foreign passport holders. There are still requirements for identity validation that can cause trouble, especially for foreign citizens, but the list of people who can validate one's identity has been extended. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading5"><h5 id="Switzerland">Switzerland</h5></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Swiss_identity_card" title="Swiss identity card">Swiss identity card</a></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:NIDK-front.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/72/NIDK-front.jpg/220px-NIDK-front.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="140" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/72/NIDK-front.jpg/330px-NIDK-front.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/72/NIDK-front.jpg/440px-NIDK-front.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1898" data-file-height="1206" /></a><figcaption>Current Swiss identity card</figcaption></figure> <p><a href="/wiki/Swiss_citizen" class="mw-redirect" title="Swiss citizen">Swiss citizens</a> have no <a href="/wiki/Obligation_of_identification" title="Obligation of identification">obligation of identification</a> in <a href="/wiki/Switzerland" title="Switzerland">Switzerland</a> and thus, are not required by law to be able to show a valid identity document upon request by a police officer or similar official.

It is issued as a card (tarjeta DNI) at birth to all people born in the country (and hence citizens), and to foreigners who register as residents with the National Directorate of Migrations. It must be updated at 8 and 14 years of age, and thereafter every 15 years. The documents are produced at a special plant in <a href="/wiki/Buenos_Aires" title="Buenos Aires">Buenos Aires</a> by the Argentine national registry of people (ReNaPer).<sup id="cite_ref-168" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-168"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>167<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The National Identity Document (DNI) is the sole instrument for personal identification and is mandatory. Its format and use are regulated by Law No. 17671 on Identification, Registration, and Classification of the National Human Potential, enacted in 1968, replacing the enrolment document issued to men undergoing mandatory military service and <i>libreta cívica</i> given to women upon turning 18. </p><p>According to this law, the DNI cannot be substituted by any other document for legal purposes. It is required for voting, which is mandatory, and for identification before judicial authorities. The Argentine DNI is also required for conducting procedures with state authorities, and entitles adult bearers to work within the country. </p><p>From November 4, 2009, as part of a modernization and digitization process of national documents, a new type of DNI with both a booklet and a card was issued; either may be used for most purposes, but the booklet had to be used for voting. </p><p>The DNI booklet had a light blue cover with laser printing for the citizen's unique number and silver prints for the rest of the presentation. Internally, it had an identical design to the card format but included spaces for marital status, address changes, organ donations, and the stamping of the DNI after voting in national elections. The card was entirely laminated and contained all the individual's data, including a photograph and fingerprint impression. </p><p>From 2011, the DNI underwent further changes, with no booklet and a different card design, a higher-quality plastic card to be used for all purposes. The booklet was no longer required for voting by holders of the still-valid 2009 version. Since April 1, 2017, the DNI card is the only valid identification document. Taxpayers also have a Unique Tax Identification Code (CUIT). </p><p><br /> In December 2023, the National Registry of Persons of Argentina (Renaper), a subsidiary of the Ministry of the Interior, introduced the Biometric National Identity Document (DNI).

This distinction is also shown in the document at the very bottom by a bold all-caps typeface displaying either the word VENEZOLANO or EXTRANJERO, respectively. </p><p>Despite Venezuela being the second country in the Americas (after the United States) to adopt a <a href="/wiki/Biometric_passport" title="Biometric passport">biometric passport</a>, the current Venezuelan ID document is remarkably low-security, even for regional standards. It can hardly be called a card. The paper inside the laminated cover contains only two security measures, first, it is a special type of government-issued paper, and second, it has microfilaments in the paper that glow in the presence of UV light. The laminated cover itself is very simplistic and quite large for the paper it covers and the photo, although is standard sized (3x3.5 cm) is rather blurred. Government officials in charge of issuing the document openly recommend each individual to cut the excess plastic off and re-laminate the document in order to protect it from bending. The requirements for getting a Venezuelan identity document are quite relaxed and Venezuela lacks high-security in its birth certificates and other documents that give claim to citizenship. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="See_also">See also</h2></div> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Aadhaar" title="Aadhaar">Aadhaar</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Access_badge" title="Access badge">Access badge</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Anthropometry" title="Anthropometry">Anthropometry</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Biometric_id_card" class="mw-redirect" title="Biometric id card">National biometric id card</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Campus_card" title="Campus card">Campus card</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Egyptian_National_Identity_Card" title="Egyptian National Identity Card">Egyptian National Identity Card</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Homeland_card" title="Homeland card">Homeland card</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Home_Return_Permit" class="mw-redirect" title="Home Return Permit">Home Return Permit</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/ID_card_printer" class="mw-redirect" title="ID card printer">ID card printer</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Identity_Cards_Act_2006" title="Identity Cards Act 2006">Identity Cards Act 2006</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/List_of_identity_card_policies_by_country" class="mw-redirect" title="List of identity card policies by country">List of identity card policies by country</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Magnetic_stripe_card" class="mw-redirect" title="Magnetic stripe card">Magnetic stripe card</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/NO2ID" title="NO2ID">NO2ID</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Pass_laws" class="mw-redirect" title="Pass laws">Pass laws</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Physical_security" title="Physical security">Physical security</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Police_certificate" title="Police certificate">Police certificate</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Proximity_card" title="Proximity card">Proximity card</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Self-sovereign_identity" title="Self-sovereign identity">Self-sovereign identity</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Warrant_card" title="Warrant card">Warrant card</a></li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Notes">Notes</h2></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1239543626">.mw-parser-output .reflist{margin-bottom:0.5em;list-style-type:decimal}@media screen{.mw-parser-output .reflist{font-size:90%}}.mw-parser-output .reflist .references{font-size:100%;margin-bottom:0;list-style-type:inherit}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns-2{column-width:30em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns-3{column-width:25em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns{margin-top:0.3em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns ol{margin-top:0}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns li{page-break-inside:avoid;break-inside:avoid-column}.mw-parser-output .reflist-upper-alpha{list-style-type:upper-alpha}.mw-parser-output .reflist-upper-roman{list-style-type:upper-roman}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-alpha{list-style-type:lower-alpha}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-greek{list-style-type:lower-greek}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-roman{list-style-type:lower-roman}</style><div class="reflist reflist-lower-alpha"> <div class="mw-references-wrap"><ol class="references"> <li id="cite_note-eea-relevance-60"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-eea-relevance_60-0">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text">The legal <i><a href="/wiki/Acquis_communautaire" title="Acquis communautaire">acquis</a></i> has been identified as <a href="/wiki/European_Economic_Area" title="European Economic Area">EEA</a>-relevant by the EU Commission, which makes it under scrutiny for incorporation into the <a href="/wiki/European_Economic_Area" title="European Economic Area">EEA Agreement</a> by <a href="/wiki/Iceland" title="Iceland">Iceland</a>, <a href="/wiki/Liechtenstein" title="Liechtenstein">Liechtenstein</a> and <a href="/wiki/Norway" title="Norway">Norway</a>.

This region gives absolutely no genetic information about your race, medical history, or pre-disposition to a disease. DNA is the ultimate tool for personal identification. Every individual has a unique set of DNA markers, which are inherited from their parent(s). Therefore, your loved one can be easily identified by their specific DNA profile. DNA Profiling is highly recommended by Law Enforcement Agencies nationwide as an identification method for all of your family.
