How do the new cards work and avoid identity theft?

 

The new digital ID cards look similar to the old ones, but they are smaller and equipped with an electronic chip and a QR code. The new cards will be possible to travel within the European Union with the new cards but not to the UK from October 2021.

 

The electronic chip will contain all the personal information (name, date of birth, nationality, etc.) indicated on the physical card, including a picture, and two fingerprints (except for children under 12 years old). The QR code is the CEV or visible electronic collection number that used as an electronic signature to mark authenticity.

 

In this way, the new cards have capable of fighting identity theft, as the electronic chip will act as an all-access key and would be easier to detect cases of fraud.
