What is NIMC?
The National Identity Management Commission (NIMC), which was established by the NIMC Act No. 23 of 2007, is charged with the responsibility of establishing, owning, operating, maintaining, and managing the National Identity Database in Nigeria, registering persons who are subject to the Act, assigning a Unique National Identification Number (NIN), and issuing General Multi-Purpose Cards (GMPC) to individuals who are citizens of Nigeria as well as others who are legally residing within the country. These responsibilities were given by the
The NIMC Act of 2007 mandates the formation of the NIMC, as well as its tasks and powers, the creation of the National Identity Database, the allotment of National Identification Numbers (NINs), and the issuing of token General Multi-purpose Cards. In addition, the Act gives the Commission the authority to enact rules that are relevant to the responsibilities it performs. The NIMC Act of 2007 lets the assets and debts of the old Department of National Civic Registration (DNCR) be transferred to the new NIMC. It also lets the law that created the DNCR be thrown out.
What does NIMC do?
- for the purpose of managing and operating the National Identity Management System (NIMS).
- Enroll all citizens and anyone who is legally allowed to live in the country, and give each person a National Identification Number that is completely unique (NIN).
- Each person will be given a National e-ID Card, also called a Smart General Multi-Purpose Card (GMPC), after they sign up.
- Take control of the national database on identities (NIDB).
- Make all of the databases in the country consistent and integrate them into a single, unified identity (The NIMC database).
- The platform that will be supplied by NIMC will allow for the verification and validation of the identities of citizens.
What is NIN?
The National Identification Number-NIN (pronounced as “Neen”) is a unique number issued to a successful enrolled individual. This number is randomly generated and it is issued for life.
Who should register for NIN?
Every citizen and legal resident is entitled to apply for a National Identity Number (NIN).
What is NIN used for?
The NIN is used to tie all records about an individual into the National Identity Database and is also used as a valid means of establishing or verifying an individual’s identity.
How can I register for NIN?
Upon successful enrolment, a Transaction Slip is issued. The applicant is told when to get his or her NIN. When the applicant returns to receive his or her National Identification Number (NIN), a second slip titled the National Identification Number (NIN) Slip is provided. The 11-Digit Number is located in the upper left corner of the second row of the NIN Slip. This is the slip with the NIN, valid for all legal transactions in Nigeria.
How long does it take for my NIN to be ready?
It usually takes between 1–5 working days for your NIN to be ready after registration.
Can I display my NIN on social media?
No. The NIN is a unique identifier that must be guarded similarly to your ATM/debit/credit card number or PIN. It is neither a certificate nor a receipt number.
