Abstract
In the case where a card issuer and a service provider are different in operating and managing a smart card for multi-application programs, when the card issuer sends a request of sending an initial load application program personalized when initially issuing the card to the service provider, the service provider can not select a proper application program and determine an object for personalizing. This is solved by assigning a unique number to the smart card issue application form for cooperating the card issuer with the service provider.
