The European Union has agreed on new requirements for ID cards of EU citizens and for persons with temporary or permanent residence permits, the press service of the European Council informs.

“According to the new rules, identity cards will have to be produced in a uniform, credit card format (ID-1), include a machine-readable zone, and follow the minimum security standards set out by ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organisation),” the statement said.

Each card will contain a photo and fingerprint of the cardholder, stored in a digital format, on a contactless chip. ID cards will indicate the country code of the member state issuing them, inside an EU flag.
The card will be valid from 5 to 10 years.
The new rules will take effect two years after the decision to be made. All new personal documents in EU countries must be issued according to new requirements.
