3. How to Check Your NIN on 9Mobile via USSD Code

Using the USSD code is one of the easiest methods. Here's how:

Dial *346# on your 9Mobile line.
Press send and wait for a confirmation message.
If your NIN is linked, it will be displayed in the confirmation message. If not, you will be prompted to link your NIN.

Note: Ensure you have enough airtime on your line, as the process subtracts N20 from your balance. Also, you must register your 9Mobile SIM with your NIN to use this method.

Registering Your 9Mobile SIM with Your NIN

If you haven't registered your 9Mobile SIM with your NIN, you need to do so before checking your NIN. Visit any 9Mobile Experience Center or NIMC enrollment center with a valid ID (such as a national identity card, international passport, or driver's license). You will fill out a form and provide your biometric data. Once complete, your NIN will be linked to your 9Mobile SIM.
