Security documents such as the Portuguese Citizen Card and the passport are also produced by INCM. The evolution of new technologies makes this activity a strategic development area, making the company able to supply the Public Administration with the most modern and safe identity documents, as well as opening new markets, answering the needs of a broad group of companies and organizations, chief among which is the banking sector.

INCM has been incorporating, in a significant way, secure electronic components and services in its documents and services, and developing new actuation areas in information systems. This enabled a more diverse offer and access to new markets, from a perspective of making processes simpler and virtual.

The authentication of precious metals artefacts, a task the INCM performs in modern laboratories, certified by the Instituto Português da Acreditação (Portuguese Accreditation Institute), and the publishing of essential Portuguese and universal culture works are also part of the INCM tasks.

INCM results of the merging, in 1972, of Imprensa Nacional (The Official Printing Office) and Casa da Moeda (The Mint). The long history of these companies makes INCM the repository of some of the oldest industrial establishments in the country.

The fast integration of new technologies in its ample activities makes INCM a company turned towards the future, willing to overcome the challenges put forth by its mission, in a permanently changing world.
