Delivered with the Republic of Djibouti
The Government of Djibouti engaged Digital Partners to implement a government-grade digital identity credential for its citizens, integrated with the country’s official identity infrastructure. The solution has been delivered and tested and is now in its pilot phase ahead of full national rollout. It lets citizens prove who they are from their phone, with trust anchored in the State’s own systems.
The solution was launched nationally by the President of the Republic on 9 February 2026, at the close of Djibouti’s National Digital Identity Forum.
The national identity credential on the citizen’s phone, with PIN- and biometric-protected access and identity verification by QR code.
A portal for activating a citizen’s Mobile ID once the Authority has captured their details and issued a national identification number.
Portals through which public and private organisations join and offer services to citizens using Mobile ID.
The credential and verification architecture runs within Djibouti’s existing identity register and PKI, with trust anchored in the State’s own certificates.
The complete system has been delivered and tested on the State’s own infrastructure and is now running in its pilot phase.
This engagement shows how Digital Partners works with national governments: as a vendor delivering a specific, well-defined credentialling capability inside government-owned infrastructure, rather than asking a country to adopt an entirely new identity stack. Biometric data stays with the Ministry of the Interior, other institutions reach it only through a secure server-to-server exchange, and the trust anchor remains with the State throughout.
