NIN services online
National Identity Management Commission (NIMC). Docufy is independent. We are not part of NIMC and don’t speak for it.
NIN changes and slip reissues, started on your phone.
Overview
About NIMC filings
The National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) issues the National Identification Number (NIN) that banks, SIM registration and passports depend on.
Docufy prepares your NIN change or slip reissue with the evidence it needs, and a vetted partner firm submits it. Most changes need no visit. A photo or education change, or a date-of-birth change of more than 5 years, needs one, and the form tells you before you pay.
