New Identity Card begins to be issued this Tuesday (26)

Rio Grande do Sul begins to issue this Tuesday (26) the National Identity Card (CIN). The new document will adopt the CPF number as a general, unique and valid registration for all of Brazil.

After the southern state, “the civil identification bodies in Acre, Distrito Federal, Goiás, Minas Gerais and Paraná will follow in the following days. There is still no forecast of issuance in the other states”, informed the Federal Revenue, in a statement.

According to the Revenue, the CIN will be issued, at this time, only to citizens who have updated information on the CPF.

“Citizens who do not have or have incorrect information on the CPF may use the remote service channels of the Federal Revenue Service to resolve their situation”, he said.

The updating of information in the CPF can be performed free of charge on the internet, at Federal Revenue website. In some situations, the procedure generates a care protocol. In these cases, the requested documents can be sent to the IRS by e-mail.

The new document template will become mandatory in 2032.

Check below what will be the changes in the National Identity Card:

unique registration number

The new document model adopted by the government will have the CPF as a unique registration number. Thus, the identification will be the same throughout the country.

digitization

The National Identity Card will have a physical and virtual version, in addition to allowing verification by QR Code, even without the use of the internet.

international document

Another novelty is that the national identity card will have an international standard, allowing travelers to use it outside the country. The document will have a MRZ (Machine Readable Zone) code, the same code issued in passports.

What is the reason for the changes?

According to the government, the novelties seek to modernize the country and reduce fraud, especially through the unification of the identity number.
