RENIEC and Lima Districts Roll Out Free DNIe Drives for Minors and Seniors Through May

The effort seeks to close ID access gaps for vulnerable residents using a secure, chip‑enabled card that supports legal digital use.

Overview

  • - RENIEC, working with local governments, is running free electronic ID campaigns in Lima districts through May with tight daily capacity.
  • - Carabayllo confirmed recurring sessions at Estadio Ricardo Palma with first‑come ticketing capped at 50 people per day.
  • - San Martín de Porres has a scheduled session at Agencia Infantas with limited slots, on‑site photography, and service by order of arrival.
  • - The drives serve only two groups—minors up to 17 and adults 60 and older—to speed access for those who face the most barriers.
  • - The DNIe uses a cryptographic chip and polycarbonate body to curb fraud, and its digital signature lets users complete legal, banking, and public service tasks online.
