# Portuguese eID

Portugal also has an eID card. More info at http://www.cartaodocidadao.pt.

## Card Versions

It appears that two versions of the card exist. One is based on the Gemsafe applet and the other on the IAS specification.

## Official Middleware

The software download page lists software for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Parts of the software are based on OpenSC (custom libopensc provided with the software).

At this time, the Mac version does not provide a Tokend, so the card is not supported by applications which use the CDSA/CSSM API. Also, no source code is provided.

## OpenSC support

OpenSC trunk currently supports the Portuguese eID card.

Mac OS X full support is available through OpenSC.Tokend.
