Abstract

An assembly comprises an integrated circuit card capable (2) of communicating data in a contactless fashion. The assembly further comprises a case (32) for the integrated circuit card. The case has an electrical circuit (14, 16) which, when the integrated circuit card is inside the case, is electrically coupled to the integrated circuit card so as to prevent the integrated circuit card from communicating data in a contactless fashion.
