electronic ID

Chip-based identity card

Electronic ID is a digital credential that verifies a person's identity, replacing or supplementing physical documents like driver's licenses or passports.

Government-issued electronic IDs may be stored on smartphones or smart cards and used for online services, border crossings, or age verification: The new electronic ID lets you file taxes without mailing documents.
