Cyprus Electronic Identity (eID)

The Electronic Identity (eID) is an official tool of the state for the identification of the citizen's data and the conduct of electronic transactions with security and legal force. 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.
