Federal ID

Your Federal ID number and photo stay yours

14 November 2026, Federal Africa

Your full Federal ID number is now shown only to you, and your card shows only the photo you agreed to share.

Your full Federal ID number is shown only to you. Everyone else sees only that you hold a Federal ID, never the number.

The Federal ID card in your dashboard now shows the photo reviewed by the Office of Federal Identity Services, and only with your consent. Until it is approved, or while you are awaiting verification, it appears blurred, with a label saying so. Without your consent the card shows no photo.

The Federal ID is a civic membership credential that works inside Federal Africa. It is not a passport, a national identity card or proof of nationality.
