Over 500,000 DNIs ready for collection nationwide, says Reniec

The National Registry of Identification and Civil Status (Reniec) is making a significant push to ensure all citizens have their essential identification documents. With over half a million DNIs ready for collection, Reniec is urging the public to come forward and claim their documents. This initiative is crucial for enabling citizens to fully participate in civic life, from accessing essential services to exercising their right to vote.

Lima, La Libertad, Piura, and Arequipa are identified as the departments with the highest number of pending DNIs. Reniec has provided a clear and accessible online tool through its institutional portal, allowing individuals to easily check if their DNI is ready for pickup. By simply entering their DNI or application number, citizens can confirm the status of their document, ensuring they don't make an unnecessary trip.

With more than 450 Reniec agencies available across the country, operating with convenient hours, the process of collecting a DNI should be straightforward. The institution emphasizes the importance of verifying office hours and the status of one's application before visiting. This proactive approach by Reniec aims to streamline the process and ensure that these vital documents reach the hands of the citizens who need them, empowering them to engage fully in the life of the nation.
