China'S ID Card Intends To Register The Fingerprint Information &Nbsp; The First Generation Card Is Discontinued In 2013.

From January 1, 2013 onwards, the first generation

On the issue of resident identity cards, Yang Huanning, Vice Minister of public security, said that since the implementation of the resident identity card act in 2004, citizens have changed their second generation of resident identity cards.

In accordance with the law, a generation of certificates issued by citizens can continue to be used within the validity period, which forms the situation of a generation of certificates and two generations of certificates.

However, by the end of last year, 1 billion 40 million people had received two generation of certificates.

At present, the number of citizens holding one generation of certificates has not yet been pferred to the two generation of certificates.

Yang Huanning explained that because of the technical constraints, the performance of the first generation of certificates is poor, and it is easy to be forged, resulting in the illegal manufacture and sale, the use of a generation of certificates, and the problem of crimes.

In order to further improve the anti-counterfeiting performance of the ID card and consolidate the population information base of social management, it is necessary to end the situation of the use of the one generation card and the two generation card as soon as possible, and add fingerprint information into the registration project of the two generation of certificates, and ensure the safety of citizens' personal information.

At the same time, it is necessary to improve the provisions of the people's police for the identification of resident identity cards according to law.

In order to give sufficient time for the people who have not yet changed their certificates, the draft stipulates the abolition of the one generation of certificates, that is, the suspension of use since January 1, 2013.

In addition, taking into account the rapid development of China's economy and society and the continuous updating of document management technology, in order to avoid changing every new certificate, it is necessary to amend the law. The draft stipulates that the state decides to renew the new generation of resident identity cards, and the date of suspension of the use of the original identity cards is decided by the State Council.

Dispel doubts

Why should I register?

Fingerprints

Yang Huanning, Vice Minister of public security, said that with the development of society and economy, human body biometric information such as fingerprints is widely used in identity documents.

At present, 56 of the more than 100 countries and regions that carry out the ID card system in the world have added fingerprint information to their documents.

The recognition of fingerprint information in identity cards is gradually becoming the same.

Yang Huanning introduced that fingerprint information should be included in the ID card. State organs, as well as financial, telecommunication, pportation, education, medical and other units, could identify the identity of the witness quickly and accurately through machine reading, which would help maintain national security and social stability, improve work efficiency, effectively guard against the use of other resident identity cards, and forgery and change of identity cards, and play an important role in clearing accounts and implementing the real name system for financial institutions.

Do I need to change my credentials?

No change in the two generation of fingerprint

Yang Huanning said that the special chip used in the two generation of certificates has reserved fingerprint information storage area when designing the stereotype, so that fingerprint information needs not be changed.

The registered fingerprint information of citizens who have already obtained the identity card can be gradually realized through the replacement of the identity card, and no need to collect fingerprint information on a large scale.

At the same time, state organs, as well as financial, telecommunication, pportation, education, medical and other units, can also guide and encourage citizens to register their fingerprint information voluntarily by providing faster and more convenient services for the holders of registered fingerprint information, and shorten the period of the registration of finger marks.

Can fingerprint information be ensured?

Fingerprint information can not restore images.

Yang Huanning explained that the fingerprint information registered in the resident identity card is a digitized fingerprint feature point, which can not be reduced to fingerprint images, and can effectively protect the fingerprint information safety of citizens.

In order to prevent the illegal disclosure of personal information such as fingerprints by citizens, the draft further tightened the duty of confidentiality and confidentiality. The draft stipulates that the relevant units and their staff should keep confidential the personal information of citizens obtained in performing their duties or providing services.

What are the consequences of disclosing personal information of citizens? The draft stipulates that staff members of state organs or financial, telecommunication, pportation, education, medical and other units divulge personal information of citizens obtained in performing their duties or providing services, constitute a crime, and investigate criminal responsibilities according to law. If a crime is not committed, the police shall be detained for more than 10 days and less than 15 days. If there is any illegal income, they will be fined 5000 yuan in addition to confiscating illegal gains.

If such acts occur in a unit and constitute a crime, they shall be investigated for criminal responsibility according to law; if no crime is constituted, the officer in charge of the direct responsibility of the police and other persons directly responsible shall be detained for more than 10 days or less than 15 days. If the unit has illegal gains, it shall confiscate the illegal gains and impose a fine of not less than 100 thousand yuan and not more than 500 thousand yuan.

Police can check documents

Correlation

The draft has added a kind of situation that the police can perform their duties according to the law of the resident identity card to verify the identity card of the residents, that is, "at the railway stations, long-distance bus stations, ports, wharfs, airports or places where the Municipal People's governments at the community level during major activities are required, the identity of the persons concerned should be identified".

China's current resident identity card law provides four conditions for the police to perform their duties and check their resident identity cards according to law.

Yang Huanning, Vice Minister of public security, said that from the practice of grass-roots law enforcement, the four inspection cases prescribed by the ID card law were too narrow to adapt to the complex situation of current public safety.

The amendment proposed in the draft will help the public security organs confirm their citizenship in a more timely and accurate manner and effectively maintain public order and social order.
