The last application date for replacement of new smart identity cards at Smart Identity Card Replacement Centres (Replacement Centres) is February 11, 2023, while the collection service will be maintained until March 3, 2023. "Through the roving exhibition, we hope to remind citizens who have yet to replace or collect their new smart identity cards to proceed to the Replacement Centres as soon as possible to complete the procedures", an ImmD spokesman said.

Apart from informative panels, a transparent touch screen display and promotional videos introducing the new smart identity card will be set up on site. Moreover, relevant promotional materials and souvenirs will be distributed.

The roving exhibition will later be held in other districts, and the details will be announced in due course.
