Icelandic identification number

The Icelandic identification number (Icelandic: kennitala, abbreviated kt.) is the Icelandic national identification number. It is widely used to identify individuals and organisations in Iceland.

The ID numbers are administered by Registers Iceland (Iceland's civil registry). ID numbers are issued to Icelandic citizens at birth, and to foreign nationals resident in Iceland upon registration. They are also issued to corporations and institutions.
