How can i find a sample of south africa national ID?

Nobody should share actual ID numbers to protect people against identity theft.

The actual ID is a small green book with a photo, name, country and date of birth, date of issue, and barcode inside on page 1. On the cover in gold lettering there is a national coat of arms with the following words written underneath it:

Republiek van Suid-Afrika

Republic of South Africa

Identiteitsdokument

Identity Document

I found this detailed explanation of and a method to verify an ID number via google:

"The format of a normal South-African ID number is as follows

{YYMMDD}{G}{SSS}{A}{Z}

YYMMDD: Date of birth

G : Gender. 0-4 Female; 5-9 Male.

SSS : Sequence No. for DOB/G combination.

C : Citizenship. 0 SA; 1 Other.

A : Usually 8, or 9 (can be other values)

Z : Control digit.

The following logic explains how the control digit works:

For this explanation I am going to use ID number 860506 5 397 08 3

a) Add all the digits of the ID number in the odd positions (except for the last number, which is the control digit):

8+0+0+5+9+0 = 22

b) Take all the even digits as one number and multiply that by 2:

656378 * 2 = 1312756

c) Add the digits of this number together (in b)

1+3+1+2+7+5+6 = 25

d) Add the answer of C to the answer of A

22+25 = 47

e) Subtract the second character from D from 10, this number should now equal the control character

10-7 = 3 = control character (3)

and thus, if you ever have to validate an ID number this would be the best way to do it ..."

P.S. I don't know if this is a real ID number but the validation method worked with mine.
