What does the Bhutanese Citizenship ID number mean?

In Bhutan, the Citizenship Identity (CID) card contains a 11-digit number but have you ever realized what each digit represents? Certainly those 11-digit numbers are not picked up at random by the computer. Each digit has a meaning and contributes to your identity. Just by looking at your CID number, we can exactly know which part of Bhutan you are from and what’s the status of your census. Today we are going to share what each digit of your CID number tells about you.

The 1st digit represents the status of your census. If your census record is registered in Form 1 (pure Bhutanese), your CID number starts with ‘1’. If your census is registered in Form 4 (mothers are non-Bhutanese or in Form 5(, your CID number begins with ‘2’ and if you are in Form 5 (no regular census records), your CID number starts with ‘3’. So we can easily know the census status of a person the moment we look at his/her CID number.

The next two digits represent the Dzongkhag you come from. It represents the Dzongkhags in their alphabetical order. If you are in Form 1 from Samtse, your CID number will start as ‘112———, because Samtse is the 12th Dzongkhag and you are in Form 1. This means that the status of your census will be followed by the serial number of your Dzongkhag in alphabetical order as follows:

Bumthang=01
Chukha=02
Dagana=03
Gasa=04
Haa=05
Lhuntse=06
Mongar=07
Paro=08
Pema Gatshel=09
Punakha=10
Samdrup Jongkhar=11
Samtse=12
Sarpang=13
Thimphu=14
Trashigang=15
Trashi Yangtse=16
Trongsa=17
Tsirang=18
Wangdue Phodrang=19
Zhemgang=20
So if your CID number begins as 120—, I would know that you are from Zhemgang and your are in Form 1.

ThenThe next two digits represent the serial number of your Gewog in alphabetical order. Only those Gewogs in your Dzongkhag are counted and the serial number is based on the original names of the Gewogs in alphabetical order because when this CID was designed, some Gewogs especially in southern Bhutan were not given new names. For example, if the modern name of Gewog in Samtse is Norbugang which makes it the 5th Gewog in the Dzongkhag but in my CID, it is based on its former name ‘Chengmari’ which is the 4th Gewog. So my CID number may go like this: 11204——, which means I am in Form 1 and I am from Samtse and my Gewog is Chengmari.

The final six digits represent your actual individual serial number in your Gewog. For instance, if my CID ends with the number ‘000438’, which means I am the 438th person in my Gewog. The main purpose of having six digits at the end is that the 11-digit number CID can include upto 999,999 people in each Gewog.

Having explained so, we hope you might have now got what your CID number tells about you. It certainly carries more meaning than what we just see as a 11-digit number.
