On August 3, 2021, the new DNI came into force, baptized as
DNI 4.0 or European DNI . It is part of the DNIE Digital Identity Program of
the National Police, financed with resources that come from European funds
requested through the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan of the
Government of Spain. Marketingmediaweb
It is a new identity
document that is mandatory in the European Union. Now, this does not mean that
your current ID is no longer valid and you have to renew it. All documents
issued until the end of July will be valid until their expiration date or until
August 3, 2031. Divinebeautytips
One of the main characteristics of the new DNI is that its
design is common in all member countries of the European Union to facilitate
mobility and make it easier to identify citizens. In addition, all the
information is written both in the official language of the country and in
English. Although the UK is no longer part of the EU, this language has been
chosen as the most widely used. Techcrunchblog
Characteristics of the European DNI
The size of the new identity document will be exactly the
same: 85.60 millimeters wide x 53.98 millimeters high. Now, it includes a
series of modifications on the front and back:
Two-letter code: it is printed in a blue rectangle
surrounded by yellow stars, the symbol of the European Union. In the case of
Spain, the code corresponds to the letters ES.
Microchip: DNI 4.0 incorporates a microchip that stores the
bearer's photo, fingerprints and signature, as well as the Electronic Signature
and Authentication certificates.
Security elements: taking into account that it contains very
private personal information, it has a series of security elements, some
visible and others not. Therefore, it is much more difficult to counterfeit.
Period of validity
The validity period of the new DNI is between five and ten
years. However, countries can set a validity period of less than five years for
identity documents issued to minors and of more than 10 years for those over
70.
DNI 4.0 on the mobile
If all goes according towards plan, in a few months citizens
will be able to register their European ID on their mobile phone to be able to
use it in official applications that are being prepared by the European Union
and member countries, such as Spain.
The objective of the Spanish app is that citizens can leave
their physical identity document at home and simply carry the mobile version
not only to prove their identity, but also to use the electronic signature from
the Smartphone. Nanobiztech
Meanwhile, the European Union has a more ambitious approach
and wants the app to also serve to carry out bureaucratic procedures with
local, regional and state administrations.
Express ID
Among the next steps of the DNIE Digital Identity Program of
the National Police is the Express DNI. It is a semi-automatic dispatch system
that will reduce waiting times.
In addition, citizens will be able to take the photograph
"in situ". It is also expected to increase the number of posts for
updating the electronic DNI to make it cooler for citizens to pay fees with a
bank card and renew digital certificates.
