The new National Identity Card (CIN), which is already being issued in 26 states and the Federal District, promises to expand access to public services and provide greater security in the identification of citizens, who now have the CPF as their identifying number. By the end of September, more than 13.4 million documents had already been issued, according to information from the Federal Government’s monitoring system.
The first copy of the CIN is free and can be obtained until 2032. The old document remains valid for 10 years, but the new identity card can be requested at any time. Furthermore, it may contain other document numbers in its digital version, such as the National Driving License, Social Identification Number (NIS), among others.
The new document also identifies, through symbols, people with visual and/or hearing impairments, Autism Spectrum Disorder and people with intellectual disabilities.
According to the Secretary of Digital Government of the Ministry of Management and Innovation in Public Services (MGI), Rogério Mascarenhas, CIN brings the possibility for the Federal Government to start automating the granting of benefits. “When you have, for example, the issue of the Assistance Benefit for Persons with Disabilities (BPC/LOAS), which is a widely used benefit, nowadays you have the possibility, if you have an identification made of the person, with that condition that it has, I think we can already be working on automating it”, he explained.
CIN also connects with the digital identity of the federal government platform Gov.br, which allows access to more than 4,300 digital services.

This will open up possibilities of use for various government and private applications, becoming a fertile field for the digital certification market”, says Jorge Prates.
