KRA Pin Checker – How to Retrieve KRA Pin using ID number
Let’s be honest. Dealing with the KRA iTax portal is every Kenyan’s least favorite errand.
Whether you are an employer trying to verify a new hire, a cyber café attendant simply trying to retrieve a KRA pin, a business owner confirming supplier details, or an individual who simply forgot their PIN, logging into that portal feels like a maze. You need a password, often a forgotten one, then an OTP that takes five minutes to arrive, and finally, you have to navigate through five menus just to find a simple number.
What if you could skip all that?
That’s why Mwash Cyber developed a lightweight tool that does exactly one thing, and it does it perfectly: It checks KRA PIN numbers using nothing but an ID number.
Here is how it works.

The Old Way vs. This Tool
- The Old Way (iTax): Go to portal. Remember password. Reset password. Check email. Log in. Navigate to “Check PIN Status.” Enter details. Wait. Finally get the number. (Time taken: 10–15 minutes).
- Our Way: Visit the tool’s portal. Enter ID number. Pay Ksh 25. Get the PIN. (Time taken: 30 seconds).
How to Retrieve a KRA PIN Using ID (Step by Step)
We built this tool for absolute simplicity. You do not need to register for an account, remember a password, or install any software.
Here is the step-by-step process to check KRA PIN using just ID number:
Step 1: Visit the Tool’s Portal Page

Step 2: Enter the ID Number
Simply type in the Kenyan ID number of the person whose KRA PIN you need to verify. That is the only detail we need. No names, no email addresses, no phone numbers.
Step 3: Complete the Payment
To ensure the system is not abused by bots or people mass‑harvesting data, we charge a small fee of Ksh 25 per check.
- Why Ksh 25? It is affordable for anyone who genuinely needs the service, but sufficient to prevent spam and misuse of the tool.
Step 4: Instantly Receive the KRA PIN
Once payment is confirmed, the system instantly returns the KRA PIN number associated with that ID.
Why You Don’t Need to Worry About Security
We know what you are thinking: “Is my data safe?”
This is the most important part. The tool does not save your data. Mwash Cyber built it with privacy as the first priority.
Unlike other platforms that store ID numbers for “analytics,” our tool is a simple tunnel. You put an ID in, we fetch the PIN from the authoritative source, we show it to you, and that’s that.
- No databases.
- No logs.
- No tracking.
You are more than secure to check KRA PINs once in a while using this tool, rather than repetitive actions like password resets every single time.
Who Needs This Tool?
- HR Managers: Verify that job applicants actually have a valid KRA PIN without asking them to send screenshots (which can be fake).
- Small Business Owners: Check suppliers and customers during onboarding.
- Cyber Cafe Owners: we often deal with KRA PINS and this is very much a lifesaver.
- Saccos & Microfinance: Verify member details instantly.
- Individuals: You lost your PIN certificate? No problem. Check it in 30 seconds with your ID.
