How do you know your TIN?

It made headlines that starting January 2020, Nigerian banks could request for your TIN (Tax Identification Number) before you can operate your bank account.

Well, what was missing from that topic was how to know your #TIN

Contrary to beliefs, you do not register for it if you already have your BVN. Your #BVN was used to generate your TIN for individuals.

IF YOU'RE A REGISTERED BUSINESS, then your TIN was generated using your Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) registration number.

Simply click this link tinverification.jtb.gov.ng to know your TIN.

INDIVIDUALS are required to enter their Date of Birth, BVN or phone number registered to their BVN.

BUSINESSES are required to enter their CAC registration number.

And just like that, you'd see your TIN.

TAKE NOTE.
After seeing your TIN, use the box beside the 'send email' button to send BOTH YOUR TIN AND YOUR TIN CERTIFICATE for safe keeping to the valid email address you will enter into that box. YES IT WORKS.

Then click on PRINT, and your TIN certificate will be generated in a #PDF PDF format for download. That certificate, you will download and print to be shown on demand.

Hope this was helpful.

Be careful about where you print your TIN.
