Will ID card and room card be degaussed together?

Whether the ID card and the room card will degauss together mainly depends on whether they are both chip cards.

If the ID card and the room card are both chip cards, they will not be degaussed when put together.

If the ID card is a second-generation chip card and the room card is a magnetic stripe card, then putting them together may lead to degaussing the room card. Degaussing means that the magnetic particles on the magnetic card lose their magnetism.

The above information is for reference only. If the ID card and room card are degaussed after being put together, it is recommended to reissue a room card.
