Did you know? From January 1, 2026, you may not be able to use your bank account without a Tax Identification Number (TIN).
This is part of Nigeria’s new Tax Administration Act 2025, and it affects:
Opening or operating bank accounts
Business transactions
Stockbrokers and insurance services
👉 Who needs it?
Every taxable person — whether you’re a trader, student, worker, or business owner.
👉 How to get it (Free):
1. Visit JTB Portal or any FIRS office.
2. Go with your NIN, utility bill, and passport.
3. Fill the form, collect your TIN, and update it with your bank.
Note: TIN does not replace BVN or NIN. It’s simply your tax identity.
✅Don’t wait till January. Register now and avoid being stranded.
