Issuing Electronic Identities to Cypriot Citizens
October 9, 2024
The Cabinet has decided to issue 100,000 electronic identities (eID) to Cypriot citizens over 18, with the first 30,000 being free. The application process will be announced soon, allowing citizens to use them for secure identification in online services. The electronic identity also enables electronic signing with legal validity. This initiative is part of the 'Digital Citizen' project aimed at digitizing the market.
