Estonian ID Card

Estonian ID Card

The Estonian identity card (Estonian: Isikutunnistus) is a chipped picture ID issued in the Republic of Estonia by the Citizenship and Migration Board of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It is officially a primary-picture ID in Estonia, and is therefore recognised by all member states of the European Union or the Schengen Area and some other European countries as an official travel document. For travel outside the EU, Estonian citizens require an Estonian passport instead. All Estonian citizens and permanent residents are legally obliged to possess such a card from the age of 15.

Famous quotes containing the word card:

    What is the disease which manifests itself in an inability to leave a party—any party at all—until it is all over and the lights are being put out?... I suppose that part of this mania for staying is due to a fear that, if I go, something good will happen and I’ll miss it. Somebody might do card tricks, or shoot somebody else.
    Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
