ePassport testing: Physical conformity (ICAO Layer 1)

Why is physical testing needed for e-passports? Governments want to maintain their image, contain the costs of their e-passport migration and satisfy citizens. Such long life identity documents bear a lot of stress in the long term, hence the need to assess the durability of e-passports.

The purpose of this session is to validate the physical conformity of the identity documents according to ICAO Layer 1 (physical characteristics). FIME proposes for this session these tests:

1. Static electricity test

2. Alternating magnetic field

3. Antenna size geometric measurement test
