NIMC announces new Service Fees, warns against overcharging by Front-End Partners

The National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) has approved a new pricing structure for its products and services, marking the first official review in over a decade. The updated fees, which take immediate effect, are aimed at aligning service costs with prevailing operational realities while ensuring continued affordability and accessibility for Nigerians.

In a statement issued on Wednesday, May 1, 2025, the Commission said the decision followed a comprehensive assessment of the cost of maintaining service quality and expanding operations across the country.

“All Front-End Partners (FEPs) are directed to comply strictly with the new rates. Any partner found charging beyond the approved fees will face sanctions, including possible revocation of operating licenses,” the statement warned.

NIMC further urged the public to report any FEP found violating the pricing guidelines to its inspectorate and enforcement unit via [email protected] or by calling 08155015388.

While reaffirming its commitment to transparent and secure identity services, NIMC also announced that the revised pricing structure would be published on its website: www.nimc.gov.ng for easy public access.

The Director-General/CEO of NIMC, Engr. Abisoye Coker-Odusote, expressed appreciation to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his continued support in strengthening the National Identity Database (NIDB). She also commended the Honourable Minister of Interior, Dr. Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, and other stakeholders for their commitment to building a sustainable and reliable identity ecosystem.
