About face recognition My Number Card (My Number Card without setting a PIN)

In order to reduce the burden on those who are concerned about setting and managing a PIN, this My Number Card does not require setting a PIN and the method of identity verification is limited to facial recognition using a device or visual recognition.

• There is no change in appearance from the previous My Number Card, but "Face Recognition" will be written in the addendum section of the card so that it can be distinguished at medical institutions, etc.

• Electronic signature certificates, which are equivalent to registered seals, are not installed because facial recognition or visual recognition cannot replace the input of a PIN number (6 to 16 digits).

• Use as a health insurance card
• Presentation as an identity verification document

• Mynaportal
• Issuance of various certificates at convenience stores
• Procedures that require entering a PIN number
• Other online procedures, etc.
