In other words, it is the electronic passport of the citizen in the digital world, as is the biometric identity in the physical world.
The Electronic Identity Card has 3-years validity with the right to renewal and is valid only for Cypriot Citizens over 18 years of age who are in possession of a valid biometric identity card.
In addition, it ensures the use of a Qualified Electronic Signature for the signing of digital documents with security and legal force.
