Typically, collection of the National Registration Identity Card (NRIC) in Singapore requires an appointment. This appointment is usually scheduled after the completion of necessary formalities, such as application or renewal.
However, if you’ve missed an appointment or have an urgent need, some Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA) offices may allow walk-ins for collection under special circumstances. It’s advisable to contact the ICA or check their official website for the specific office where your NRIC is to be collected to inquire about the possibility of walk-in collections and any necessary documentation or requirements beforehand.
The National Registration Identity Card (NRIC) is a unique identification card issued to citizens and permanent residents of Singapore. It serves as an official identification document for various purposes, including accessing government services, voting, and legal transactions. The NRIC contains personal details such as name, photograph, thumbprint, and a unique identification number.
