Abstract

Most European countries have brought in electronic ID cards. Poland is planning to introduce them in the first quarter of 2019. Work on the electronic identity card has been going on for over 10 years and the first impulse for starting the project was the introduction of biometric passports. The new Polish ID card will have a graphic and electronic layer and the range of data in both layers will be identical. Te Polish electronic ID card, which is the continuation of the pl.ID project and the implementation of related projects, does not envisage more data in relation to the data on the current identity cards. This article presents the chief concepts relating to identity cards, their implementation in Poland, and it examines the work currently being done to introduce electronic ID cards in Poland.
