Copy Solutions International (CSI), the company that won the tender to issue new IDs (cedulas) in the Dominican Republic, says that it won because it had presented the best security guarantees for the personal identity and voter card.
CSI says that the new card will be issued with the same technology and materials that are used by the governments of the United States, Canada, Japan, United Arab Emirates, South Korea, Qatar, and the People’s Republic of China among other nations. He said that they are working in partnership with the US companies GetGroup and ABNote. GetGroup is the world distributor of the Japanese printers Toppan and ABNote is a provider of IDs and passport to many governments of the world, including the United States.
