IDNA

Three pillars

🛡️

Sovereignty

The State owns the system and the data — and that is precisely what gives it full freedom of decision.

🔍

Transparency

Every query is logged, timestamped and auditable. Safeguards sit at the heart of the architecture.

🤝

Inclusion

A parallel physical pathway for everyone. The digital layer complements the physical BI, which remains the reference.

Why now

Concrete impact

Beyond security, IDNA translates into tangible gains for the State, for public services and for citizens.

🏛️

Public services under less pressure

  • Administrative procedures handled remotely: fewer queues and fewer trips to service desks.
  • Digital vault: official documents no longer need to be requested and reissued time and again.
  • Proactive expiry notifications (BI, passport, licence): renewals brought forward and fewer surges in demand.
🌍

Streamlined consular services (diaspora)

  • Online consular registration and updates to address or family status without travelling.
  • Renewals, duplicates and certificates handled remotely.
  • Less pressure on consulates; the diaspora saves time, travel and costs.
⏱️

Less waiting time

  • Authentication and identity verification in seconds.
  • Faster bank KYC and account opening, with reliable identity verification.
  • Instant verification of a document's authenticity, without back-and-forth.
🎓

Education and digital inclusion

  • Training in schools and universities — a generation of native users.
  • Digital caravans and local ambassadors to bring access to rural areas.
  • Skills-building for Angolan developers and the creation of ICT jobs through the development ecosystem.
