IDEMIA’s highly-sophisticated card solution for the California DMV is designed to accept multiple personalization modes including digital color printing, UV-printed full color portrait image and three laser engraving techniques. These cutting-edge approaches to security design create stark differences between authentic and counterfeit cards, protecting against counterfeiting attempts when compared to more simple DL/ID card constructions.

We are proud to issue a highly advanced card in both design and security features. The new California DL/ID card provides a superior level of security with easy authentication by combining reliable construction with high-resolution security preprint and multiple personalization print technologies.
California DMV Director Jean Shiomoto

The joint effort for the newly designed card demonstrates a successful collaboration between IDEMIA and the state. California has the largest DL/ID issuance volume of any jurisdiction in the U.S., with over 8 million cards produced annually. IDEMIA is the leading provider of DL/ID credentials in North America, delivering over eighty percent of the credentials issued in the U.S.

We are honored to receive this award from the prestigious organization, ICMA. As a trusted partner to U.S. government agencies for 60 years, IDEMIA is proud to be the leader in offering secure identification credentialing.
