Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a microcircuit card, including steps of: forming a first antenna coil in a card, the first antenna coil having a part following the edge of the card, forming a module having a microcircuit and a second antenna coil around and connected to the microcircuit, and implanting the module into the card at a precise position in relation to the edge of the card, the first antenna coil being coupled by induction to the second antenna coil, the first antenna coil being pre-formed in such a way that only one part of the second antenna coil is at a distance from the first antenna coil of less than 5% of the width of the second antenna coil.
