Trüb, one of the worldwide leading suppliers of identification and travel documents, is supplying documents for one of Africa’s largest identity solutions for the Guinean government. The new identity card from Trüb is made of polycarbonate and is a key element of the comprehensive national identity solution to be implemented in the country. Trüb supplies the identity cards each citizen of Guinea will receive on registration for voting. While the card will initially be used as an ID for voting purposes, it is planned to extend the project to encompass National ID cards with every citizen of the country ultimately being issued such a card, whether registered to vote or not. More specifically for Guinea which has seen the need to improve their citizen ID system, the solution also offers an opportunity to exploit the efficiencies of having a single ID card for citizens, allowing them to securely prove their identity when required in all situations.
