YOGYAKARTA - Losing an Identity Card (KTP) can certainly cause trouble. The good news is that now taking care of the lost ID card is often considered complicated because it requires an introductory letter from the RT/RW. So how to take care of the missing ktp without an introductory letter?

This article will guide you step by step on how to manage a lost KTP without the need for an introductory letter, so you can immediately have your official identity back.

Reporting from Antaranews, here are two ways to manage ID cards online and offline:

To apply for an online replacement for the missing e-KTP, the first step is to access the official website of the Population and Civil Registration Service (Dukcapil) according to your domicile.

After that, register the account according to the instructions listed on the page. Fill in the application form needed as part of the service requirements.

Furthermore, upload supporting documents such as copies of the Family Card (KK) and a certificate of loss from the police. After the submission is processed, the Dukcapil office will provide a notification if the new e-KTP has been printed.

Finally, you can take the e-KTP at the Dukcapil office by bringing the requested requirements, such as the KK and the letter of loss from the police.

Meanwhile, the procedures for replacing the missing e-KTP offline began with reporting the incident to the police to obtain a loss letter.

Furthermore, applicants need to visit the Dukcapil office on weekdays and working hours by bringing a letter of loss and a Family Card (KK), as well as a copy of the missing e-KTP (if any) also needs to be included.

Arriving at the Dukcapil office, the F-1.02 form must be filled in as part of the application. After submitting and verifying documents by officers, the estimated new e-KTP completion time is seven working days.

It should be noted that the printed e-KTP must be done by the owner himself at the Dukcapil office.

After taking care of the missing KTP, ensuring that the suitability of population data including the Population Identification Number (NIK) between physical ID cards and civil records is now more practical with the online ID card check facility.

Here are two easy methods to verify ID cards online, compiled from the official Dukcapil page:

Akses laman resmi Direktorat Jenderal Kependudukan dan Pencatatan Sipil (Dukcapil) melalui peramban Anda di alamat https://dukcapil.kemendagri.go.id/. Kemudian cari dan pilih opsi atau menu yang berkaitan dengan pengecekan e-KTP.

Next, enter the NIK listed on your KTP into the column provided.

After making sure the NIK is filled in properly, click or press the "Check" button or a similar option.

If the NIK you enter is valid and registered, the system will display your personal data information recorded in the population database.

Open the WhatsApp application on your mobile device. Make sure you have saved the information service number or Dukcapil complaint, namely 08118005373.

Next, find and open the "Hello Dukcapil" contact that you have saved. Then type and send the "Menu" message in the chat column.

After getting the response, select the "information" option and then "Population card" according to the instructions given.
