These companies have the legal capacity (permits/licences) on their own or through their technical partners allowing them to obtain and transmit biometric data in the countries within which they operate, in addition to the licence issued to them by NIMC.
The costs for all infrastructure and operations for enrolment activities will be borne by these companies.
As a result, they will charge some fees for diapsora enrolment.
Nigerians abroad, however, also have the choice of enrolling for free whenever they travel back to Nigeria, provided they have valid passports.
Where, however, their passports have expired, they must obtain their NINs as a prerequisite for renewal of their Nigerian international passports or in order to acquire new passports.
