Foreign GINs

Any business in Kaldus that a foreigner may wish to do business with must have a GAON to setup their account. However, the foreigner is obviously not living in Kaldus. They still need a GAON, and NIN. How will they go about doing this? Well, it will be best to do this process before needing to do business. There is a cost to acquire the numbers needed, but these numbers will be good for the life of the citizen.

The foreigner will need to do a few things. The first will be to get a DNA kit. They will go to https://gov.ka/fgin. They will then select acquire GIN. They will be prompted to provide a password. This will be essentials for logging in when they acquire their numbers. They will also need to set up 2FA. 2FA will be required in order to use the service. This will help protect the foreigner from would be bad actors. They will need this 2fA code for when they log in for the first time as a just in case their GIN is compromised before they receive it. Once they processed for an account, they will then need to acquire a DNA kit. This will be cost + 15%. To pay for the kit, they must use a credit or debit card that has their name on the card. The system will not process the order otherwise to reduce the chance of fraud. The kit will be sent to the mailing address on the card they used. This again is to reduce the chance of fraud.

Once the kit is received, they will need to provide a number of identifiable details. They will need to provide color copies of the following:

  1. Current verified photo ID
  2. Birth Certificate
  3. National Government ID card

They will also need to provide the included application, a copy of their lease, and any utility bills. The more, the better. Next, they will do a cheek swab which will be used to process their DNA. They will also need a facial photo picture with a white background. This information will be inserted into the return package, and taken to the shipper of their choice. They will fill out the included application, and decide whether they wish to have an ID card sent to them. This will cost extra, but will prove useful if they are planning on visiting the nation.

Once the package is received by HHS, the information will be investigated and verified, they will then receive an email from cs@hhs.ka. This email will inform the foreigner that their identity has been acquired and processed. The foreigner will receive an email from cs@gov.ka containing a .zip file. This .zip file will contain their GIN which they will need to log into the account. They will go to https://gov.ka/login and login with the GIN (in the text file), and password they provided when setting up a request for account. Since this will be the first time, they will be required to provide their 2FA code. Once they provided the login credentials, and 2FA code, they will also select “remember this device” if this is a computer they own, and log in. Their computer should be properly locked if they choose to remember device. Otherwise, they will need to provide the 2FA code when logging in with a computer that is not remembered. Their card (if ordered) will be sent via Global Priority Mail.

Now that they have a GIN, and an NIN, they can acquire a GAON for acquiring services with a Kaldan company. This could be a KCI ID, or a Kaldan telephone number. Either way, they now have the ability to do so. They must set up services in Kaldus or their home country. This is again to reduce the chance of fraud.
