Introduction of "Mobile Resident Registration Card" in December...Issuance by community center

Mobile resident registration cards, which can be conveniently used by storing resident registration cards on mobile phones, will be introduced next month.

The Ministry of Public Administration and Security said the revision of the Enforcement Decree of the Resident Registration Act, which includes details such as the procedure for issuing mobile resident registration cards and security measures, was approved at the Cabinet meeting.

Anyone over the age of 17 who has been issued a resident registration card can apply for a mobile resident registration card, and you can get it immediately if you visit a nearby Eup, Myeon, Dong community center.

If you are a citizen who has made a real resident registration card into an IC resident registration card, you can tag your mobile phone on the IC resident registration card and get it issued without visiting the community center.

The Ministry of the Interior and Safety has applied various security technologies such as blockchain and encryption to prepare for personal information leakage or fraudulent use, and plans to prevent theft by suspending the validity of the mobile resident registration card if a mobile phone is lost.
