In the first step, I will write about how you can create a NID account for yourself, and in the second step, I will write about how you can input your personal information and address.
After completing those two steps, you must download and print the NID application form and submit it to your area’s Election Commission office.

For NID registration, you need to go to this link first. After entering this link, a page will appear in front of you. This page is like the image below.
Here, from the two options, click on the option called Application for New Registration. After clicking, an interface will appear in front of you, and here, you will be asked to enter some information.
At the top of this page, you will see your Name option. In the option below, you enter your birth registration number here. Enter your correct date of birth in the date of birth option below.
Then finally, below, you will see that a captcha is provided. Fill in the captcha correctly and click on the submit button.
After clicking submit button, you will be taken to a new interface. It will ask to verify your mobile number. You verify your phone number with your specific mobile number on this page.
You will be taken to another interface when the phone number is verified. After being taken to the interface, you will be asked to create your account with a username and password. Create an account with a username and password you specify. After account creation, you can do NID registration.
So, follow these steps if you are not convinced yet:
Step One: Verify It’s You!

Step Two: Create Your Account!

- DONE! YOUR NID ACCOUNT HAS BEEN CREATED!
Enter Your Information For NID Registration
After your account is created, you will see an option called Detailed Profile below the account. Click on the option. After clicking on this option, a new page will appear. On this page, you have to provide all your Personal Information.
You will be asked to provide your Name, parents’ Name, place of birth, parental information, and more. Once the information is entered, you click on the Submit button. But it should be remembered that no wrong information should enter here. Because if you submit incorrect information, you will have to change the NID information later.
However, once this is done, you will be taken to a new page where your occupation will be asked. Enter your specific Occupation here and click on Submit option.
After clicking the submit button, you will be taken to the last step, where you will be asked to enter your address. Enter your full address correctly in all the options.
When the address is entered correctly, click on the Submit option. After clicking, you will get an option to get some documents from you. Since there is no way to submit documents online when you go to the election office to submit your photograph, give them all the documents required for NID registration.
Skip the document submission option and click next. Then you will see a page will appear in front of you. Download this page. And then, you need to print the form. After printing the form, you need to get the signature of your UP member.
After that, you must submit the application form and the necessary documents to the election office. They will take your picture, take your fingerprints and give you the slip. Save the slip carefully, as you will need it later to collect your new NID.
But remember that you can also register your NID from the nearest election office. If confused, you should register your NID with the election office. But if you need, you can register your NID at your home following the rules above.
NID Validation: Smart Card Status Check
NID Validation is a method of checking NID. Many people look for ways to check whether the National Identity Card is genuine or fake, but many fail to find this way. Now, the government of Bangladesh has started to provide Smart NID Card. This NID Validation process is called a ‘Smart Card Status Check.’ OK, let’s check your smart card’s status.
Now, this discussion brings the correct rules of NID Validation. To do NID validation, you must first log in to the Bangladesh Election Commission website.
After entering here, there is an option called Smart Card Status. Clicking on this option will take you to a page like a picture below.
This page will ask you to enter your NID number and date of birth. On the option of NID number is your slip number, which was given to you by the election commission office.
After entering the date of birth, you will see a captcha at the end. Fill this captcha correctly and click submit button. Only then will you see your NID, and all your information will show here, and you will understand whether it is correct or fake. You can download and print it in PDF format and do other things with it.
