Smart Card Manager update
Published on 19 December 2022 at 17:18 - Modified the 20 December 2024 at 02:00
From January 15th 2023, the old version of the Smart Card Manager software, which allows you to use your USB Monegasque identity card or residence permit reader on your computer will no longer be supported by MConnect.
You will need to update to the latest version of this software (6.22.2.13), which is available for Windows and Mac OS X here: mconnect.gouv.mc/logiciel.
The update is not automatic. You will need to download it and launch the installation. It takes just a few minutes.
Why do I need to install this update?
Constantly changing security standards mean that it is sometimes necessary to make changes to the design of electronic certificates or the associated USB media to maintain the highest levels of security.
From 15/01/2023, the previous version of the software (6.21.2.1) will no longer be supported and there will be no patches in the event of any bugs.
The new version (6.22.2.13) can read all cards and permits issued in the Principality from June 2021 onwards.
How can I check that Smart Card Manager is working properly?
