The Ministry of Management and Innovation in Public Services (MGI) updated the list of states that can already offer the new identity card.

In addition to the name change, the new wallet has more advantages and has a digital version. See here at showmetech in which states to CIN is already being issued, the news about this new means of identification and the conditions for obtaining the new identity by cell phone.

Which states are already issuing the new identity card?

All regions of the country are already issuing the new identity card, but the Northeast and South regions are the ones with the most federative units with this availability. O MGI also reported that the state of Amazonas was the unit that most recently adhered to these 12 states for issuing the CIN. Check out the full list of states issuing the new ID:

• Acre
• Alagoas
• Amazon

The pace of issuance is at high numbers: the federal government's management portfolio reported that 460 new licenses had already been issued by April and that 330 CINs were downloaded by the platform gov.br. Between July and December 2022, 105 wallets had already been provided, with only six states having the service during that initial period.

Does the new identity have an expiration date?

Yes, the new documentation has a validity scheme, which follows a scale according to age, but it does not have a defined period for those over 60 years old. In other cases, there is a period of 5 years for renewal for children aged 0 to 12 years and 10 years for people aged 12 to 60 years.

Older identity cards have another, longer validity period. They are valid until February 29, 2032. As such, it is expected that there will be a gradual transition to adoption of the CIN Throughout the national territory.

Identity changes: see what the new CIN offers

A variation in relation to the identity card we already know, which has the General Register (RG) defined by the States, is that the CIN will now only have the number of the Natural Persons Registration (CPF), with national validity. In other words, national identity will no longer rely on the RG, starting to have only a single code for each registered citizen. Furthermore, the main novelty, in terms of innovation, is that the national document now has a digital version. However, it can only be issued as long as the person has already sought to obtain the physical version of the ID.

The new identification includes a QR code which can give more authenticity to the document. With the code, any smartphone can scan the registry and verify that the CIN it was stolen or if it was the target of any criminal action. Added to this verification technology, the document has the code Machine Readable Zone (JUNE; machine-readable zone, in free translation), which is recognized internationally.

In this way, the new version of the wallet will be accepted as a travel document. still, the CIN It has different types of issue, with two types of physical version, paper and polycarbonate (plastic), or digital, which can be presented throughout the country. Regarding national acceptance, the main change is that only one card will be accepted, and it will no longer be possible to have a RG in each state, since the CPF goes on to replace it.
