Here are some key features of the new Digital TIN ID:

B. Unlike physical TIN cards, the Digital TIN ID doesn’t need a signature. Its authenticity can be verified online through ORUS simply by scanning the QR code on the Digital TIN ID using a mobile device camera.
C. Individual taxpayers with existing TINs can apply for the Digital TIN ID through ORUS. Users must enroll their accounts on the ORUS platform.
D. The Digital TIN ID is a permanent identification document. Both the physical TIN card and Digital TIN ID remain valid, eliminating the need to obtain a physical card if you possess a Digital TIN ID.
