How to Obtain a Nigerian National Identification Number (NIN) in the UK Step By Step Guide
1. Find a Licensed Enrolment Centre: To begin, locate a licensed NIN enrolment centre in the UK. Several licensed partners of the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC), such as Sapnet Solutions, provide NIN services. Look for certified centres on their websites to confirm their legitimacy.
2. Book an Appointment: Before visiting, most centres require you to book an appointment online. Visit the website of your chosen enrolment centre to complete the booking process.
3. Gather Required Documents: You’ll need the following documents for your NIN registration:
Proof of Nigerian Citizenship: Valid or expired Nigerian passport If no passport, bring an online generated National Population Commission certificate. For minors, bring an online generated National Population Commission certificate and the NIN of one parent.
Verification Number (BVN) (If you have done one earlier): If you have a BVN, bring it as some centres may require it during the registration process. Additional Documents: Some centres may ask for a completed enrolment form, so check the website for requirements.
4. Complete the Enrolment Process: During your appointment, your demographic data will be pulled automatically from your NPC certificate, fingerprints will be captured, a facial scan done, and a digital signature taken. This information will be verified and cross-checked against the National Identity Database. After successful enrolment, you’ll receive your 11-digit NIN slip. You can use the NIN to obtain a National Identity card by downloading the NINAuth app from the app store.
5. Important Considerations: The NIN registration does not expire, but ensure to update your information online from the NIN self service portal if there are any changes.
