The next generation of Swiss ID cards have been revealed – packed with new state of the art security features.

Like the new passport – the themes are mountains and water. 

The cards are issued by the Federal Police Office and are the most forgery proof cards ever produced. 

When lit up by ultra violet lights – the cards show map contours of mountains.

The new card will cost the same and the old cards remain valid – until they expire.
