MILITARY ID CARDS - COMMON ACCESS CARD


The Common Access Card , also known as the Geneva Conventions Identification Card ,
is issued by the Department of Defense (DoD) to enable access to certain of its comput-
ers, networks, and facilities. Seal at right varies by branch of service.

There are four types of Common Access Cards:
• Geneva Conventions Identification Card

national affiliates who need access to DoD
facilities, installations, and computer systems.
• Geneva Convention Identification Card for
Civilians Accompanying the Armed Forces
• Identification and Privilege Card: Civilian
employees, foreign national military, and other
eligible personnel.
Common Access Cards are color-coded with a
bar below the holder's photo indicating status.
Blue = non-U.S.-citizen; green = contractor; and
white = all remaining personnel. (Cards issued to
Geneva Conventioos Identification Card
civilians are not color-coded.)

DD Form 2: This card has
