Extended paper ID card validity removes renewal deadline, aligning it with natural expiryExecutive summary: The government extended the validity of paper identity cards beyond the previously set August 3 deadline, making the expiration date coincide with the card’s natural expiry. By removing the artificial renewal deadline, the policy reduces bureaucratic friction and lowers processing expenses for citizens and authorities. The Ministry of the Interior and associated civil registry offices, together with millions of cardholders, are the main actors. The extension will remain in effect until each card’s natural expiry, after which further adjustments may be considered if needed.The Italian government issued a decree extending the validity of existing paper identity cards to their natural expiration date, eliminating the need for citizens to renew before that date. This measure simplifies administrative processes and reduces costs for both individuals and the state. It applies to all cards issued before the previously scheduled expiry of August 3, 2026.Open the full case file on Beyond →
