An IC card with a product test program contained therein is provided with a read-only memory. This read-only memory stores various routines, and is arranged such that if a secret code assigned exclusively to that IC card has been already written in a non-volatile memory in the IC card, an externally entered secret code is collated with the stored secret code, and, if the collation is successful, the non-volatile memory is initialized. The test program can be executed only after the initialization has been completed.
