The Bank Verification Number (BVN) is a unique 11-digit identification number that is assigned to every individual who has enrolled for it in Nigeria. It is a biometric identifier that is used to verify the identity of bank customers across the country.

The BVN was introduced by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) in 2014 as a way to combat fraud and identity theft in the banking sector. It is designed to help banks verify the identity of their customers more accurately, which makes it more difficult for criminals to open fraudulent accounts or access existing accounts without the owner’s permission.

You can get a BVN by enrolling at any bank branch in Nigeria. The enrollment process is simple and quick, and it only takes a few minutes to complete. You will need to provide some basic personal information, such as your name, date of birth, and address. You will also need to have your fingerprints and a photograph taken.

How to get a BVN

A Bank Verification Number (BVN) is a unique 11-digit identification number that is issued by the Nigerian Interbank Settlement System (NIBSS) to all bank customers in Nigeria. It is used to verify the identity of bank customers and to prevent fraud.

To get a BVN, you can visit any bank branch in Nigeria and provide the following documents:

  • A valid means of identification, such as a Nigerian passport, driver’s license, national ID card, or voter’s card.
  • A completed BVN enrollment form.

The bank will capture your fingerprints and facial image, and you will be issued a BVN on the spot. You can also check your BVN online through the NIBSS BVN validation portal.

Here are the steps on how to get a BVN:

  1. Go to any bank branch in Nigeria.

  • It helps to prevent fraud.
