About this document
A national identity card is the official document that proves its holder's identity and, in most countries, nationality. Issued by the state (interior ministry, civil registry or migration service), it usually shows a photo, surname and given names, date and place of birth, sex, card number, issue and expiry dates and, on recent models, machine-readable lines or a chip.
