The National Identification and Registration Authority is reminding Jamaicans of the requirements to apply for the National Identification Card.

Applicants must provide documents such as a birth certificate, proof of address, and other identification documents where available.

The enrollment process requires an in-person appointment, where a person’s photo, fingerprints,
and signature will be collected.

The ministry also noted that qualified persons can start the process by visiting their website.
