Abu Dhabi: It will be optional for UAE residents to integrate their bank cards with national ID cards when such a system comes into effect, a top official told Gulf News on Thursday.

“It will not be mandatory at all for residents to link their ATM or credit cards with national ID cards when we provide such an option [in near future],” Dr Ali Al Khoury, Director General of Emirates Identity Authority (Emirates ID) said.

As Gulf News exclusively reported on Tuesday, ATM and credit cards can be replaced by the national ID cards soon.
