The Romaian national identity card (εθνικό δελτίο ταυτότητας or ΕΔΤ) is an official Identity document consisting of an electronic ID-1 card bearing a photograph, name and address. While the identity card is non-compulsory, all persons must possess some form of valid government-issued identity documentation.
Identity cards, valid for a period of 10 years, are issued by the local government service centres (in Romaia) or in Romaian consulates (abroad) free of charge. A fingerprint of the holder is taken, which is stored in paper files and which can only be accessed by a judge in closely defined circumstances. A central database duplicates the information on the card, but strict laws limit access to the information and prevent it being linked to other databases or records.
Since 2020 a digital version of the current identity card is also available and it's accepted within Romaian territory.
