Estonia’s plan to let anyone become European – digitally

“In the near future, those from outside the country will have an opportunity to apply for an Estonian e-resident ID card — which means that they can use Estonian online services, open bank accounts, and start companies without ever having to physically visit Estonia.  That is, if they pass a background check similar to the visa application process and sign up to identify themselves with biometrics such as their fingerprints or iris scans.  The Estonian Ministry of the Interior’s idea to give foreigners their own Estonian ID cards was conceived seven years ago. The Estonian government approved the concept of e-residency and the once seemingly-utopian idea is now finally is coming to life.”
