Overview
- Reniec launched a nationwide campaign running July 14–19 that offers the electronic national ID (DNIe) free to people in vulnerable conditions, including newborns, minors, older adults, people with disabilities, low‑income households, and indigenous communities.
- The agency published an official Excel schedule listing local campaign dates and points of service by region, province and district so beneficiaries can confirm where and when to attend.
- Reniec’s online platform lets users generate payment tickets for 14 procedures through Yape and Agente BCP to simplify related transactions and reduce the need to visit offices in person.
- More than one million citizens updated the address on their DNI in the run‑up to the 2026 Regional and Municipal Elections, a change Reniec says will affect voter location and election logistics.
- Reniec promotes the DNIe as a modern, polycarbonate document with anti‑forgery features that enables faster transactions and legally valid digital signatures, which officials say should improve access to public services and remote procedures.
