A process for the preparation of a mini - uicc - chip cards - support with an associated plug - in - uicc - the adapter and the resulting holder

摘要

The invention relates to a method of producing a smart card (mini-UICC) having a reduced format in relation to a second standard format (plug-in UICC) and an adapter with the second format (plug in), which is associated with the smart card. The inventive method comprises the following steps consisting in: providing a card body comprising a zone for the extraction of the smart card and a zone for the extraction of the adapter, and extracting at least the smart card (mini UICC) from the support. The invention is characterised in that the method comprises a step in which the smart card is extracted from a zone located outside the peripheral outline of the adapter extraction zone. The invention also relates to the support thus obtained.
