The ability to use electronic identities (eID) anytime and anywhere is a prerequisite for a dynamic information society. However, there are still many obstacles which prevent the secure, privacy-friendly and ubiquitous use of electronic identities in an interoperable manner. This paper introduces the vision of global eID-Interoperability, describes the state of the art for electronic identities, highlights related challenges and sketches possible steps towards global eID-Interoperability. 1
