IS 14202 : Part 6 : 2024/ISO/IEC 7816-6 : 2023 Identification Cards - Integrated Circuit Cards - Part 6 Interindustry Data Elements for Interchange
NATIONAL FOREWORD
This Indian Standard (Part 6) (Third Revision) which is identical to ISO/IEC 7816-6 : 2023 'Identification cards Integrated circuit cards - Part 6: Interindustry data elements for interchange' issued by ISO 'International Organization Standardization' and IEC 'International Electrotechnical Commission' was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on the recommendation of the Identification & Data Capture Techniques, Cards and Security Devices Sectional Committee and after approval of the Electronics and Information Technology Division Council.
This standard was first published in 2003 and subsequently revised in 2013 and 2018. The original version of this standard was identical to ISO/IEC 7816-6 : 1996 issued by ISO and IEC. The first revision was based on ISO/IEC 7816-6 : 2004. The second revision was based on ISO/IEC 7816-6 : 2016 and this revision of this standard has been brought out to align it with the latest version of ISO/IEC 7816-6 : 2023.
The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:
a) The data format of IC manufacturer ID has been extended from a single byte to multiple bytes.
This standard is published in several parts. Other parts in this series are:
Part 1 Physical characteristics
Part 2 Dimensions and location of the contacts
Part 3 Electrical interface and transmission protocols
Part 4 Organization, security and commands for interchange
Part 5 Registration of application providers
Part 7 Interindustry commands for structured card query language (SCQL)
Part 8 Commands and mechanisms for security operations
Part 9 Commands for card management
Part 10 Electronic signals and answer to reset for synchronous cards
Part 11 Personal verification through biometric methods
Part 12 Cards with contacts - USB electrical interface and operating procedures
Part 13 Commands for application management in a multi-application environment
Part 15 Cryptographic information application
The text of ISO/IEC standard has been approved as suitable for publication as an Indian Standard without deviations. Certain conventions are however not identical to those used in Indian Standards. Attention is particularly drawn to the following:
a) Wherever the words 'International Standard' appears referring to this standard, they should be read as 'Indian Standard'; and
b) Comma (,) has been used as a decimal marker while in Indian Standards, the current practice is to use a point (.) as the decimal marker.
