Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates generally to a data carrier comprising an opaque layer and a method for making the data carrier. During personalization phase, the ablation of the opaque layer by laser through the data carrier allows to define a see-through portion of the data carrier carrying opaque security markings, said see-through portion having an improved security corresponding to opaque embossing pattern overlapping at least partially the opaque security markings. Said defined see-through portion carrying opaque security markings with opaque embossing pattern on its surface is even more difficult to reproduce by forger, even more difficult to remove, replace or exchange and easy to check.
