An identity card containing a microchip that can be used in a travel document or as a separate card is disclosed. This identity card consists of at least two core layers 6, 7, preferably of polycarbonate material, that are fused to one another. In each of the core layers there is a recess 12, 13, each of a different size. On assembly these recesses become situated on top of one another and a semiconductor chip 14 is accommodated in the larger recess formed as a result. There is a covering layer 8 fused to at least one of the core layers whilst a layer that can be written on by laser has also been applied. There can be (semi-)transparent windows on top of one another in the core layer and if the covering layer is transparent light can be transmitted, it being possible to apply a specific pattern in the windows. |
