BAKU, Azerbaijan, March 10.​ The registration
of insured persons with the insurer will be carried out only
through the personal identification number (FIN) in Azerbaijan,
Trend reports.


These changes are encapsulated in amendments to the Labor Code,
as well as the laws "On Individual Registration in the State Social
Insurance System" and "On Labor Pensions," signed by President
Ilham Aliyev.


According to the new regulations, the issuance of a Social
Insurance Number (SSN) will be directly linked to the Personal
Identification Number (FIN) on the individual's identity card
within electronic systems.


As a result, insurers will no longer be required to request the
SSN from individuals who are already registered with a social
insurance number or to obtain this information through other means
when hiring new employees.


The law will come into force on July 1.
