Proof of identity could be used, for example, when dealing with authorities or for registering with digital services. Citizens should be able to open bank accounts, but also save driving licenses or doctor’s prescriptions. A free electronic signature should also be possible, it said.
The EU Commission proposed the legal framework for digital proof of identity in June 2021 at the request of the heads of state and government. According to the authority, last year only 14 member states allowed people to use their national electronic ID across borders. The project still needs to be approved by Parliament and the EU states, but this is considered a formality.
