Living in the UK but needing a Nigerian National Identification Number (NIN)? Don’t worry, you can enrol for your NIN without traveling to Nigeria. Here’s a detailed guide to the process and a list of enrolment providers in the UK:
Benefits of a NIN
- Access Nigerian government services online
- Register for a Voters Card and participate in elections
- Renew your Nigerian International Passport abroad
- Open or reactivate a Nigerian bank account
- Many other essential services
The Enrolment Process
- Pre-enrolment (Optional): While not mandatory, some providers offer online pre-enrolment forms to save time at your appointment.
- Choose an Enrolment Provider: See the list below for details on various providers.
- Book an Appointment: Contact your chosen provider to schedule an appointment. Some offer online booking.
- Prepare Required Documents: Bring a valid Nigerian International Passport (or Letter of Attestation if unavailable). Minors need a birth certificate and a parent’s NIN.
- Attend Your Appointment: The provider will capture your biometrics (fingerprints, photographs) and process your information.
- Collect Your NIN: Depending on the provider, you might receive your NIN slip immediately or within a few days.
