Abstract

The invention concerns a smart card comprising a card body provided with a cavity in which an electronic module incorporating a microelectronic chip is inserted, and at least one security marking designed to authenticate a component of the smart card. A first security marking is disposed on the microelectronic module, and a second security marking is disposed on the card body. The two security markings are linked by a visual identity or matching relationship indicating that the microelectronic module and the card body are original components assembled when the smart card was manufactured.
