Procedure descriptions

Apply for a change of address on the eID card

If your address changes, you must also have your address changed on your eID card.

If you have a main residence, you must go to the eID card authority responsible for you at your main place of residence to change the address on your eID card.

If you do not have a main residence, you can change your address at the eID card authority at your current place of residence.

Your address will only be changed on the chip of your eID card, as no address is printed on the card itself.
