Pink cardboard license to be phased out

The famous pink cardboard driver's license, consisting of three panels, will soon be phased out. Authorities are advising individuals to consider replacing it, as the transition is free.

Reason for the change

The decision to phase out the pink cardboard license is part of a broader effort to modernize identification systems and enhance security features. The current design is no longer considered sufficiently secure against forgery or tampering.

New digital alternatives

Individuals will be able to replace their pink licenses with new digital alternatives, which include enhanced security features such as holograms and micro-printing. These new licenses are designed to be more difficult to counterfeit and easier to verify.

Transition process

The transition process is free for all individuals, and authorities have set up dedicated centers to assist with the switch. This ensures that everyone can obtain a new license without financial burden or unnecessary delays.
