Frequently Asked Questions (the Basic Resident Registration Card)

QuestionWhat is a Certificate of Residence code? How can I change it?

Response

The Certificate of Residence code is an 11-digit number assigned to all individuals recorded in the Basic Resident Register for nationwide identification purposes within the Basic Resident Register Network System.
It is automatically assigned, so you cannot choose the number, but if you wish to change it, you can do so by submitting a notification. For more details, please refer to the "Certificate of Residence code" page.
