Nigerian Tax ID Portal Goes Live – Effective January 1, 2026

As part of ongoing efforts to modernize and streamline tax administration in Nigeria, the Joint Revenue Board (JRB) and the Nigerian Revenue Service (NRS) are pleased to announce the launch of the Nigerian Tax ID Portal.

What is the Tax ID?

The Tax Identification (Tax ID) is a unique, system-generated number assigned to all taxable persons in Nigeria for the purpose of tax administration.

• For individuals, the Tax ID is linked to their National Identification Number (NIN).

• For non-individuals (businesses and organizations), it is linked to their Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) registration number.
