Summary
Since 2009 The Gambia has had a National ID system based on biometrics. Innovatrics was the supplier of this system until 2018, when a new National ID system was rolled out. This one is provided by Semlex. The cost of the ID card for a citizen of the Gambia was reportedly four hundred and fifty dalasi at the time of release. This is around 7,000 euro.
