Are these like Estonian IDs, which are basically full-size SIM smartcards with a photo? Those can integrate with OpenSC and therefore GPG: https://github.com/OpenSC/OpenSC/wiki/Estonian-eID-%28EstEID%29
In my case (Slovenia) there are simply signed certificates. You can use a smart card to store them, but it is not required.

@pkirkovsky, it's not the card that matters, but the certificate in it – "integrating with GPG" would defeat the whole point.
In some European countries (to my knowledge, maybe also elsewhere) governments are issuing certificates which can serve as a way to sign documents with digital signatures which are legally equivalent to normal signatures.
The issue is that there is little support for tooling around such certificates (which are normal public/private keypair, signed by state CA). So it would be great if one could integrate them somehow into keybase ecosystem so that you could:
