An identity card (identification card), including a temporary one, will not contain information about the place of residence or temporary residence of the holder, as well as his or her middle name,” Logos Press reported.

The Government decided to provide a free opportunity to obtain the first qualified electronic signature certificate for inclusion in the identification card (new identity card in RM). The validity of the electronic signature certificate issued under such conditions is five years. This benefit will be available to 1 million Moldovan citizens, Logos Press reported.

As of April 2, a new identity document of the national passport system can be obtained in Moldova. The identity card called Buletin de identitate will be replaced by the Carte de identitate identification card. The accompanying Fișa de însoțire inserts in circulation for all types of valid identity cards and residence permits will be invalidated from the date of introduction of the identification card, Logos Press reported.
