If anyone can’t show his/her NID card during buying a SIM, he/she have to show his/her other identity cards like passport, driving license etc. which must contain the owner’s photograph. The validity of that SIM will be 6 months. The person must submit his/her NID to register that SIM permanently within this 6 months. Otherwise, the SIM will be closed after the 6 months period. A person can buy as many as 20 SIM cards with one NID (conditions applied).
