The thick portion (5) is a planar card made of plastic, cardboard or a layered composite material such as paper/plastic. This planar thick portion (5) is fixed to the upper face or to the rear face of the thin portion (10) by gluing, lamination or bonding so they together form a unitary smart document which has a flat position in which the thin portion (10) lies flat with the thick portion (5). One part of the thin portion (10) is fixed to a front or rear face of the planar thick portion (5) and another part, that is not fixed to the planar thick portion (5), can be flexed away from the flat position.</p> |
