Per the government statement, the instruments approved include a decision on the date of realization of technical conditions for issuing the CEI in line with Government Ordinance 12/2023, a decision relating to procedures for the collection, storage and deletion of biometric data for the issuance and management of the digital ID, and a decision to revise the methodology with regard to personal records and identity documents. The last decision is in line with the government’s move from last year to require biometrics for citizenship documentation. The digital ID issuance from March 20 will be only for the Cluj Country, while it will be available nationwide from June, the government says. Specifically, from June 2, adults and children under 14 will be able to get the digital ID from offices for the register of persons.
