Abstract
Provided is a process for manufacturing a standard chip-card module comprising metallized contacts (P1-P6) defining a graphic design comprising visible parts formed from lines, segments or dots, a first portion (2A, 12A) of which passes right through the thickness of the metallized contacts (P1-P6) and a second portion (2B, 12B) of which is formed only superficially on the upper external surface of the metallized contacts (P1-P6). The second portion (2A, 12A) is produced in the continuity of the first portion, to form said graphic design. Other embodiments directed to a module resulting from the process is disclosed.
