Summarizing the foregoing, we can draw the following conclusions: documents made on a polymer basis have both certain advantages and disadvantages, most of the drawbacks are connected with the use of decentralized personalization, insufficiently effective control over consumable materials and the possibility to reuse the original form for the processing a fake document. The advantage of identification documents is the use in their production and centralized personalization of modern technological solutions, which ensures the presence of a complex of security features. Therefore, in order to ensure the proper level of examination of identification documents, experts should be provided with samples or electronic collections with a description of security features and equipped with modern equipment.
