Some countries have actually practiced regulations for the validity period of SIM for their country's people. Although not literally reporting for life, the validity period is quite long when compared to SIM in Indonesia.

Then which countries distribute very long validity periods for SIMs?

1. UK

So one of the countries that shares the validity period is very long for driving documents for its citizens, SIM in the UK has a validity period until the holder is 70 years old.

The information update system that is implemented is once every 10 years, with the latest photo updates. Quite interesting to practice, huh? However, the fine fee applied is quite large if the residents are negligent with this update, which is almost IDR 20.000.000.000.

2. Several States in the United States

Some states have a validity period of SIM until their holders are 65 years old. This applies in the state of Arizona. Then what if the SIM holder still wants to drive after exceeding that age?

If you still want to drive, until the SIM owner is required to renew his SIM every 5 years. This means that until the age of 65 years, SIM holders are required to renew photos every 12 years.

3. Singapore

In Southeast Asia, there are also countries that enforce SIM until the age of quite senior, 65 years. This country is Singapore. SIM holders in this country do not need to renew their SIM until they are 65 years old.

The requirements are usually only for every 3 years, it is mandatory to try updating the information tried by each of the state's SIM holders.

4. India

Next is India, which enforces a validity period of SIM up to 15 years. Although it does not last forever or as long as previous countries, 15 years is still a fairly long time limit.

To carry out the validity period of the SIM, SIM holders in India also do not need to carry out a test. The only condition is to install the latest photos and addresses.

Not only do some of these countries still have countries such as France and Germany with a validity period of 15 years of SIM, Italy for 10 years, and some other countries.
