KNOW THIS FIRST:

SANC Number

• Each nurse is uniquely identified on the eRegister by means of his or her South African Nursing Council (SANC) Number.
• This number consists of eight digits and always starts with a ‘1’.
• The SANC Number is quoted as the reference number in all correspondence from the Nursing Council and is also used as an account number for financial transactions.
• The SANC Number is the ONLY way that all practitioners can be positively identified in the eRegister.

SA Identity Number

• The eRegister contains the SA Identity Number of over 95% of practitioners – those who have provided certified copies of their identity documents to the Nursing Council.
• Unfortunately, some foreign nurses do not have SA identity documents while some other nurses still have to submit the relevant copies.
• So this information is NOT complete.
• If you fail to trace a practitioner using an SA Identity Number, please try to establish his or her SANC Number.
• Each practitioner should be able to provide you with this number.
