| It is mandatory in many countries to carry a national identity card or Documento Nacional de Identidad ( DNI) showing the bearer's personal details and a photo. In Spain it is also called a “carné”, and all Spanish citizens have to carry one from the age of fourteen. The card is renewed every five or ten years at police stations, and must be shown to police upon demand. A similar document, the “Cédula (Nacional) de Identidad” is carried in Colombia, Paraguay, Uruguay, Venezuela, Argentina and Chile. It is called the “Documento Nacional de Identidad” in Peru. |
