Bosnia & Herzegovina

Driver's License, National ID Card & ePassport

 

The Agency for Identification Documents, Registers and Data Exchange of Bosnia & Herzegovina (IDDEEA) has selected Mühlbauer to deliver the hardware and software for the production of ID-1 card bodies and ePassports. The card and passport production processes are managed by the Mühlbauer production management system MB INCAPE and the material management system MB Warehouse, which are located at the Mühlbauer production facility in Banja Luka. They are responsible for planning, processing, controlling and handling all production orders and material for the card and passport production center.


The Bosnia & Herzegovina ID card has successfully been issued since March 1st, 2013. The third-generation ePass­port with Supplemental Access Control (SAC) started to be issued on October 1st, 2014. For both the card and the ePassport, the image of the document holder is pre-personalized in line with the latest technology for color images on ID docu­ments and stored in one of the inside layers of the polycarbonate, thus preventing any possible misuse. All personal data and machine-readable zones are laser-engraved in the second inner layer of the polycarbonate card or holder page. Personal and other data are stored within the chip module in a digital and highly secure manner.
