How to Download and Print Your Premium or Standard NIN Slip by Yourself

You can now print out and even laminate your Improved NIN Slip in plastic to use as a handy physical form of identification that fits easily into your pocket, handbag, or wallet.

The QR code on the Slip makes it simple for others to verify its authenticity by scanning it with their phones using the NIMC MWS Mobile ID app.

The cost of reprinting your Standard NIN Slip is N400, whereas reprinting your Premium NIN Slip is N1000. You can conveniently pay online using the REMITA account.

Warning: Take care not to leave copies of your Improved NIN Slips (photocopies, image scans, and so on) with anybody else, since this will also leave them with copies of your NIN and verification QR code.
