Your Permanent ID Number Explained | Guyana News

Guyana’s new Digital ID cards are here — and the Prime Minister’s office wants everyone to use them. Issued by law in March 2026, these cards are now the official ID for all transactions, both local and international. Two versions exist: one for citizens (using your permanent GUIN) and one for eligible non-citizens (using your RIDN). Both numbers are lifelong and must be used for verification — never the changing Document Number or the chip-only Card Access Number. Get it right, and you’ll avoid identity confusion for life.
