Nigeria National Identification Number Input

NigeriaNationalIdentificationNumberInput is a headless input for entering Nigeria's National Identification Number (NIN), Nigeria's government-issued personal identifier. It renders as <input type="text"> with autocomplete="off" to protect sensitive identifiers. It is the editable companion to NigeriaNationalIdentificationNumberView.

Status: beta — implemented and unit-tested in all seven frameworks; not yet exercised in a composed flow.

Props

  • label: string (required) — accessible label via aria-label
  • value: string (default: "") — bindable input value
  • required: boolean (default: false) — form validation
  • disabled: boolean (default: false) — disabled state
  • ...restProps: any — additional HTML attributes spread onto the <input>

ARIA

  • aria-label={label} — provides accessible name

When to Use

  • Use in forms collecting Nigeria's National Identification Number (NIN).
  • Use in administrative or national-id workflows where the identifier is required.

When Not to Use

  • Do not use for displaying read-only identifiers — use nigeria-national-identification-number-view instead.
  • Do not use for general text input — use text-input instead.
  • Do not use for other countries' identifiers — use the corresponding country-specific input.

Headless

This headless component ships zero CSS. The consumer provides all styling targeting the .nigeria-national-identification-number-input class hook.

Testing

  • Verify renders an <input> with the correct class and type="text"
  • Verify aria-label is set from the label prop
  • Verify autocomplete="off"
  • Verify value binding works

Domain Knowledge

Eleven digits issued by the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC). No check-digit algorithm is published, so only the length and digits can be checked.

Where to find it: Shown on the NIN slip and in the NIMC mobile app, and asked for when registering a SIM card, opening a bank account or applying for a passport.
