The flyer that the JCE gives out when renewing the ID card is causing confusion.

Citizens renewing their national identity and electoral cards at the Central Electoral Board (JCE) in the Dominican Republic are receiving a supplementary document containing a PUK code and a PIN. This process has resulted in widespread confusion among the public regarding the necessity and function of these credentials.

Reports indicate that many individuals are leaving registration centers without the document, while others who do receive it are not being provided with adequate explanations regarding its purpose or utility. The lack of clear communication from the JCE has left users uncertain about the role of these security codes in the new identification system.
