Okay, let’s talk about how I managed to get a Maldives ID card online. It wasn’t as tough as I thought it would be, honestly.
Start at the Beginning
First things first, I went to the Department of National Registration’s website. It’s called the DNR, and they have an online portal. I needed to start my application there. This website, it’s pretty straightforward, which is nice. No confusing stuff, just clear instructions on what to do next.
Get to Know eFaas
Then there’s this thing called eFaas. It’s basically the Maldives’ digital ID system. It lets you prove who you are both in person and online. Sounds fancy, but it’s really just a way to make sure you are who you say you are when you’re doing stuff online.

Fill Out the Forms
So, I had to fill out a bunch of forms on the DNR portal. You know, the usual stuff like your name, address, and some other personal details. It took a bit of time, but it wasn’t too bad. Just had to make sure I didn’t make any typos.
Submit and Wait
After filling everything out, I hit the submit button. Then came the waiting game. I was a bit nervous, not gonna lie. But I just kept checking my email like crazy, hoping to see that confirmation.
Renewals and Stuff
- Oh, and one more thing. If your ID card is old or you lose it, you can renew it online.
- Or I think you can do it in person too.
- I heard they work with some other group to help people with renewals, which is pretty cool.
Finally Got It!
And guess what? After a few days, I got an email saying my application was approved! I was so relieved. They sent me my digital ID, and it was all set up through eFaas. Now I can use it to access all sorts of services online. It’s pretty convenient, I gotta say.
So yeah, that’s how I got my Maldives ID card online. It was a bit of a process, but totally doable. Just follow the steps on the DNR website, use eFaas, and you’re good to go!
