The experimental phase for the issue of electronic ID cards to Italian citizens residing abroad officially kicked off today at the Consular Chanceries of Athens, Nice and Vienna.
The document, which is based on an innovative technology to avoid counterfeiting and frauds, will be sent to the applicant’s home after an appointment at the Consulate of reference. The first of these meetings were scheduled for today.
The experimentation will be extended to other consular offices in Europe to enable approximately three million Italians residing in Europe to apply for the issue of an electronic ID card in the first half of 2020.
