# Belgian Belpic

Belgium has released an official software for their eID card. That software is a modified version of OpenSC. The source code for this software has been published as well.

OpenSC 0.10.* will include support for the Belgian eID card, except for legally binding signatures (with the so-called Signature key) as this requires a GUI, which is not yet available/implemented. Till that new release please use the "belpic" software available from the belgian state.

Thanks to Belgium for choosing OpenSC as basis for their software and donating the full source code back to use under LGPL license. Thanks to Zetes for their support of OpenSC.
