NIS registration, contributions to go fully online by October 15

The government is advancing the digitalisation of the National Insurance Scheme (NIS), with registration and contribution services expected to become fully available online from October 15, 2026.

Minister of Public Service, Government Efficiency and Implementation, Zulfikar Ally, disclosed the timeline during an interview with the Department of Public Information (DPI) as government reflects on its first year in office following the People’s Progressive Party/Civic’s re-election in September 2025.

Minister Ally said the digital transformation of NIS is intended to make essential services more accessible and convenient, reducing the need for citizens to visit physical offices to conduct routine transactions.
