Carta d’Identità Elettronica help
Plain English
The CIE (Carta d’Identità Elettronica) is Italy’s electronic identity card. Beyond a photo ID, it can unlock digital services and identity checks. Residents usually obtain it from the Comune; rules for non-Italian citizens depend on status and municipality.
