A method for producing a chip card, such that the chip card includes a card body and a chip module arranged thereon. The method has the steps of providing a card body; producing a cavity for receiving the chip module; producing at least one component opening for each of one or more electronic components in an overlap region, which is covered by the chip module arranged later; applying soldering material onto the electronic component(s), into the at least one component opening, and/or onto a lower face of the chip module; placing the electronic component(s) in the at least one component opening; introducing the chip module into the cavity; and heating the soldering material.
