Electronic Identity Card(CIE) is an Italian biometric identification document issued to any Italian citizen and to legal aliens, that has been progressively replacing the paper-based identity.

The CIE enables new digital services for citizens, that can be used also via smartphones and tablets, thanks to the NFC microchip.
