If your TRN (Taxpayer Registration Number) card is lost in Jamaica, here’s what you need to do:

  1. Report the Loss
    While it is not mandatory to report a lost TRN to the police, doing so can provide a record in case of future misuse.

  2. Visit a Tax Office
    Go to your nearest Tax Administration Jamaica (TAJ) office. Bring a valid form of identification, such as your passport, national ID, or driver’s license.

  3. Request a TRN Replacement
    At the TAJ office, request a replacement for your lost TRN. Complete the TRN application form (if required), and explain the situation to the representative.

  4. Pay the Processing Fee
    If applicable, pay the replacement fee. The cost is generally minimal.

  5. Receive Your New TRN Card
