  "description": "Apply for a first Dutch national identity card (Nederlandse identiteitskaart, ID-kaart) or renew an existing one in person at the applicant's municipality (gemeente) passport/ID desk (Burgerzaken), under the Paspoortwet 1991 and the Paspoortuitvoeringsregeling Nederland (PUN), for which the Rijksdienst voor Identiteitsgegevens (RvIG) sets the nationally standardised data and process requirements on behalf of the Ministry of the Interior and Kingdom Relations (BZK) — the same legal and institutional framework as nl/rvig/passport-application. There is no online submission channel for the application itself: the applicant (and, for a child under 12, at least one parent/guardian) must attend in person, presenting an identity document and giving fingerprints (age 12+) that are checked against the municipality's population register (Basisregistratie Personen, BRP). The identity card is a distinct legal document from the passport — usable as a travel document within the Schengen area and some other European countries, but not accepted for travel outside Europe, where a passport is required — and, unlike the passport, requires parental/guardian consent only for applicants under 12, not the full under-18 population. This document models the citizenship and registration eligibility gates, the applicant's core identifying data, the under-12 guardian consent path (including the case where a co-holder of parental authority cannot attend in person), and the service options every applicant chooses (processing speed and delivery method). It does not model: the Nederlands paspoort (a related but distinct product with its own GovSchema document, nl/rvig/passport-application), the nooddocument (emergency travel document) or alien/refugee identity-document processes, the eID online-authentication activation that happens after the card is issued, or fee amounts, which vary by age tier and change over time and are deliberately not encoded here as a single authoritative figure, consistent with de/bmi/national-identity-card-application. It does not submit the application; the live gemeente and rijksoverheid.nl sources are always authoritative — see VERIFICATION.md.",

Cross-checked against three independent rijksoverheid.nl national Q&A pages: 'Waar en hoe kan ik een paspoort of identiteitskaart aanvragen?' (eligibility, registration, in-person requirement, identical for both documents); 'Hoe lang is een paspoort of Nederlandse identiteitskaart geldig?' (validity: 10 years at 18+, 5 years under 18, identical for both documents); and 'Heeft mijn kind een eigen paspoort of identiteitskaart nodig?', which states the ID-card-specific consent rule directly: parental/guardian consent is required for an ID card only under age 12, whereas passport consent is required for the full under-18 population — resolving an ambiguity nl/rvig/passport-application's own VERIFICATION.md had flagged as unconfirmed (Utrecht's shared page frames its guardian-consent walkthrough under an 'Aanvragen (kind jonger dan 12 jaar)' subheading because that threshold is the ID-card rule, not the passport rule). The under-12 guardian-consent fields are additionally cross-checked against the national consent form's own bilingual field text (Stcrt. 2008, nr. 115), previously extracted via zlib-stream text extraction for nl/rvig/passport-application, which offers an application-type checkbox including 'identiteitskaart' alongside 'paspoort'. Status remains 'draft'. See VERIFICATION.md."
