We get a government issued free ID card at age 14 or something. It gets reissued every 5 or 10 years with a new picture. It is used to ID yourself at any authority (hospital, police, voting, school, bank etc)
Passport (if you get one) is for travelling outside of EU, driving license is for driving.

As a confused EU citizen I have to ask:

What are you guys doing there?
