Greece will introduce full digitalisation of identity documents

 


 Greeks will be able to download a digital version of their full ID card and driver's license on their mobile phones until next Easter, Greek Digital Administration Minister Kyriakos Pierakakis was quoted as saying by the Greek newspaper Kathimerini.

"We aim for most of this work to be ready by the end of the first quarter of 2022, we will certainly have these changes before Easter with regard to the new ID card ... and with regard to the driver's license," he told Skai TV.

 Currently, people can download part of their ID card on their phone to make it easier to verify the identity of the vaccination certificate holder. The new service will allow citizens to use their digital identification number in any relationship with the state or institution requesting identification.

Pierakakis also said the partial digital ID had been downloaded 608,000 times in the last 48 hours.
