Question 25278 — identity papers

Summary

Mr. Guillaume Vuilletet draws the attention of the Secretary of State to the Minister of the Interior to the issue of new identity cards. In August 2021, a new identity card will be issued, in the practical format of a bank card. France is only aligning itself with a European regulation of June 20, 2019, relating to “the security of identity cards issued to citizens of the European Union”, which certain countries, such as Germany or Spain, have already implemented. The aim is to achieve harmonization across the EU, and the MP is in favor of this. The new card, which will also include fingerprints, will include more personal information, making it easier to carry out a series of online procedures, particularly administrative ones. He asks him if it is possible to specify the progress of the work and the upcoming schedule. If this new generation of cards offers better protection against identity theft, he asks if we should not fear new risks in the event of loss or theft.
