If you are 16-65 years old and working, you must be registered with the National Insurance Board. To get your number and card, you will need to complete and submit a registration application and provide documents that show your age, identity, citizenship and your work permit (where applicable).
Registering with the National Insurance Board and obtaining your original card is free of charge.
If you need a duplicate card because yours was lost or stolen or a corrected card because you have changed your name, you can call or visit one of our local offices . To replace a card one will need to complete an application and show one or more documents as identification. The replacement card will have the same name and number as your previous card. To change your name on your card, you will need to show one or more documents that identify you by your old name and your new name. The new card will be made out in your new name but with the same number as your previous card.
All documents needed in this process should be originals or certified copies. We will make photocopies and return them to you.
