The smart card IC market in the Asia Pacific is expected to register the highest growth during the forecast period due to the ongoing technological innovations in the telecommunications, BFSI, government and healthcare, and transportation verticals, the increasing adoption of digital technologies, and rapid urbanization and industrialization. Other prominent drivers are the rising adoption of IoT devices, increasing deployment of digital technologies in retail, corporate, education, and entertainment industries, and growing electrification in the transportation industry.

The ID cards application is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to rising focus of government of different countries on transforming paper-based ID cards into chip-based ID cards to avoid illegal activities and protect citizens from identity theft. Governments of several European countries have rolled out circulars for mandating the integration of chips in ID cards. In response to this, there were over 9 million university students using student smart cards across 279 universities in Spain, Portugal, and Latin America.
