Modernization of Haiti's Civil Registry

US$ millions unless stated. Haitian fiscal year, October to September. FY2026-27 began October 1, 2026.

Description

This project's objective is to enable Haiti's National Identification Office (ONI) to develop and maintain a national civil registration and identification system that is universally accessible, secure, and non-discriminatory. The lack of a civil identity in Haiti leaves millions of people unable to access basic services, apply for credit, obtain title to property, or vote. In broader terms, they are unable to participate fully in the economic, political, and democratic life of their country. The goal of this project is to make civil registration more accessible to all Haitians. The main project activities include: the digitization of 14 million historic records from the National Archives and their conversion to a secure electronic database; training and coaching for ONI supervisors and

more

employees on the use of the new automated system; and the implementation of nation-wide campaigns to promote the registration of children. By the end of the project, it is expected to have close to universal registration rates for children and adults. The project also aims to provide adults with access to national identity cards.
