NIMC MobileID App as Means of Identity – How do i use NIMC Mobile APP
Since the MobileID app is a valid means of identification within the Federal Republic of Nigeria just like the physical National ID Card, your Passport, Driver’s license and/or Voter’s ID Card, you can present it as a legal means of identity to anyone in Nigeria.
However, here are a few things you should take into consideration before presenting your MobileID as means of identity.
- Your ID must be verified on the spot.
- You should not allow anybody to photocopy or scan your MobileID via a scanning machine.
- If they wish to have a copy for their records, they should use their own copy of the NIMC MobileID (which means they have a NIN too), to scan the QR Code on the ID page. They can then log into the portal which will be available at https://myportal.nimc.gov.ng and print out the verification sheet.
- Your ID is YOURS – you, therefore, reserve the right to know who verified your identity and when.
