Description

Description

The Building Identification Number (NIP) is a 'citizen card' for properties, aimed at providing a unique identifier for buildings to replace varied identifiers used by different entities. A pilot project was conducted in 2025 in Alfândega da Fé and Lousã to test the attribution and registration of the NIP in coordination between involved entities. The pilot confirmed the viability of the NIP model but was limited in scope and dynamics. There is no set date for the expansion of the project nationwide, and future steps depend on decisions by competent entities and technical conditions for expansion.
