How to Register

There are two (2) modes of registration:

• Online, whereby the applicants registers via the internet. A unique reference number is generated online, which the applicant takes to their nearest registration point or office, for their biometric information to be captured.

• Direct Registration at a registration point. Here the applicant’s data is entered manually by the registration officer directly into the registration data bank and their biometric information is captured.

For both modes of registration, when the individual’s biometric data is captured at the Registration Station, a temporary Registration Card is issued for the applicant to retain. This will be valid for 12 months from the date of issue. This serves as proof of registration and must be presented when the permanent residency card is printed and to be collected.

Applicants can register anywhere across the state, not necessarily where they live or work, but must pick up their printed residency cards from the registration office located within the LGA/LCDA of their place of residence.

Registration is not complete, until the biometric data of the applicant has been collected at the point of registration.

CAPTURING BIO-METRICS OF CHILDREN

Person age 0-15 years are considered children in the registration of Lagos State residents’ initiative and as such are not required to have their biometric data captured until such time when the age of 16 years is attained.

In children their fingerprint ridges are proportionate to their stature and become more defined with general body growth, and as such produces variations in the fingerprint captured when compared over time. This can also be applied to their faces, which changes and becomes more defined with growth.

Given the above, the biometric of persons aged 15 years and under will not be captured during the registration of Lagos State residents.
