Nigerians to pay N1,000 fee for NIN integration, verification

Nigerians will pay a new fee of N1,000 for National Identity Number  (NIN) integration and verification.

The spokesman of the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC), Kayode Adegoke, in a statement yesterday, said the new arrangement was in furtherance of the Ministry of Communications and Digital Economy’s directive to streamline passport application, renewal and issuance processes.

He said every Nigerian seeking NIN  verification would pay verification fee of N1000; African countries, $3.00 (organization or its equivalent in other currencies) and other countries $10.00 (or its equivalent in other countries) NIMC and NIS have agreed on a revised applicant journey that will significantly improve the speed of passport issuance/re-issuance and  reduce the traffic visiting the NIS office(s).
