"Over 225,000 applications for identity cards have been filed in the last two months in the Netherlands. Everyone, aged 14 and above, must carry valid identification or face a fine under a new law that came into force in Holland on 1 January. Valid forms of ID are a passport, a Dutch or European ID card, or a residence permit. In some cases, but not all, a valid Dutch driver's license will do."
