The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has launched a digital platform enabling Nigerians abroad to obtain Bank Verification Numbers (BVN) without travelling to Nigeria.

The Non-Resident Bank Verification Number (NRBVN) aims to enhance financial inclusion by allowing remote registration through secure identity verification.

CBN Governor Olayemi Cardoso highlighted that this initiative is part of a broader strategy to boost financial participation and increase remittance inflows.

The NRBVN platform ensures secure identity verification and access to various financial services while adhering to international anti-money laundering standards.
