NPM Version NPM downloads License Github Issues Travis Status Coveralls Greenkeeper badge

A npm package for validating and deriving information from Czech and Slovak National Identification Number. This number is used in Czech and Slovak Republic as the primary unique identifier for every person by most, if not all, government institutions, banks, etc. It consists of two parts: birth date (with gender mark) and serial number with check digit. It is commonly known as Birth Number or rodné číslo in both Czech and Slovak hence the library name.

Install

Works with nodejs v10 and higer (ES2015).

npm install rodnecislo

Usage

import { rodnecislo } from 'rodnecislo';
// let { rodnecislo } = require("rodnecislo")
 
let rc = rodnecislo('111213/3121')
 
rc.isMale()     // true
rc.isFemale()   // false
 
rc.year()       // 2011
rc.month()      // 11 - zero based month
rc.day()        // 13
 
rc.birthDate()  // new Date(2011, 11, 13) - "Tue Dec 13 2011 00:00:00 GMT+0100 (CET)"
rc.birthDateAsString() // "13.12.2011" - the Czech date format
 
rc.isValid()    // true
rc.isPossible() // true (valid, but maybe in the future)
 
rc.isAdult()    // false - by default checks if current date is above 18 years old
rc.isAdult(21)  // false - for US
 
rc.age()        // 5 - age today (it is 5.6.2017 ;)
 
rc.dic()        // "CZ1112133121" - Czech Tax Identification Number (DIč)

Definitions and legislation

Dictionary

  • birth number - National Identification Number in Czech and Slovak republic
  • birth date part - first 6 digits of birth number, typically divided with serial number with slash '/'
  • serial number - 3 digits diferentiating people born on the same day, occurs after '/'
  • check digit - last digit of the birth number, making it divisible by 11 (with exceptions)
  • DIC - czech VAT number

Historical evolution

Before 1953

  • People in Czechoslovakia have Personal ID Card Number or Work ID Card Number. It isn't called birth number/rodne cislo yet.
  • It has format yymmdd/sss
  • Women have mm+50
  • sss is serial number for people born on the same day
  • Eg: 516231/016 is birth number of a female, born on 31 Dec 1951

After 1953

  • Birth number is official now
  • It has format: yymmdd/sssc
  • Women have: mm+50
  • Whole PIN must be divisible by 11 OR
  • If (yymmddsss % 11 == 10 && c == 0) then the birth number is valid

After 1985

  • The (yymmddsss % 11 == 10 && c == 0) exception was removed
  • ... every new birth number must be divisible by 11 as a whole from now on

In 1993 Czechoslovakia split into Czech Republic and Slovak Republic

  • the legislation might differ from this point on

After 2004

  • Since 2004 (law nr. 53/2004) it is possible to add extra 20 to the month number in case the number of newborns exceeds all the possible combinations of birth date/birth number divisible by 11. In conclusion:
    • Men can also have mm+20
    • Women can also have mm+70

So to wrap it up

Short/long version

  • Short version was used before 1953
  • Long version AND yy >= 54 THEN yyyy = 19yy
  • Long version AND yy < 53 THEN yyyy = 20yy
  • Who knows what comes in 2053...

Month/Gender

  • Month is 51-62 OR 71-82 - female, subtract 50 and 70 respectively
  • Month is 01-12 OR 21-32 - male, subtract 20

Modulo condition

  • Short birth number - no modulo condition
  • Whole birth number is divisible by 11 - valid birth number
  • Whole birth number without check digit modulo 11 equals 10 AND check digit is 0 AND year is 54-85 - valid birth number

Age and Adultood

According to Civil code §601 law n. 89/2012 and §30 of New Civil Code an age is reached at midnight which is starting the birthday. So on the first seconds of your 18th birthday you can start drinking in Czech.

VAT Identification Number

In Czech the personal VAT Identification Number is derived from Birth Number by adding CZ prefix and ommitting the slash. It is called Daňové identifikační číslo (DIČ) hence the .dic() method.

  |   1   |      2a      |       2b      |       2c      |       2d       |             3          |4 |    5   |
/^\d{0,2}((0[1-9]|1[0-2])|(2[1-9]|3[0-2])|(5[1-9]|6[0-2])|(7[1-9]|8[0-2]))(0[1-9]|[1-2][0-9]|3[01])\/?[0-9]{3,4}$/;

Explanation:

  • 1 - 00-99 birth year, i.e. yy
  • 2 birth month, i.e. mm
    • a - 01-12 for men
    • b - 21-32 for men*
    • c - 51-62 for women
    • d - 71-82 for women*
  • 3 - 01-31 birth day, .i.e. dd
  • 4 - slash
