How NSID works

A lifelong National Student ID (NSID), verified through Fayda, that stays with you across schools, exams, and further learning.

Process

How NSID works

  1. 01

    Enter your Fayda number

    Enter your 12-digit Fayda Identification Number (FIN) and confirm consent to continue.

  2. 02

    Verify with Fayda OTP

    Complete Fayda verification by entering the OTP sent through the Fayda process.

  3. 03

    Retrieve your NSID

    The system checks your identity and returns your existing NSID, or issues one if you do not have it yet.

  4. 04

    Use your NSID

    Use the same NSID across education services as your lifelong student identifier.
