The council of ministers of the Taliban-led Afghanistan government on Monday announced that the issuance of national IDs and passports will start soon. The Taliban directed the Ministry of Interior Affairs to start the process of issuing national IDs and passports, TOLOnews reported.

It has not been disclosed when the process will begin. This comes as thousands of people are waiting to get their passports and national IDs. The process of issuing them had stopped since the Taliban took over the country on August 15. (ANI)
