Free CIN Issuance – The first copy of the National Identity Card (CIN) and the exchange from the old model to the new one are free throughout the state of Paraíba, as part of the public services offered to the population.
Only in cases of issuance of a second copy of the CIN are there fees established according to the values in force for the month of March, with the 2nd copy of the CIN without changing data being R$ 26.34 and the 2nd copy of the CIN with changing data being R$ 32, 93.
