In accordance with article L 1 bis paragraph 2 of the General Tax Code, the Minister of Finance, Louis Paul Motaze, informs taxpayers that the Unique Identification Number (NIU) is mandatory for all payments made on the budget of the State and public or private legal entities.
This number constitutes the unique and obligatory reference for identifying service providers and successful bidders for any public order.
The MINFI therefore invites actors in the public expenditure chain to systematically use the NIU for the identification of taxpayers as part of any operation carried out in computerized public expenditure processing applications.
