The convenience is valid only in Goiás and only for those who have already completed biometric registration, are over 16 years old, and have not changed personal data. The new RG is issued within 20 business days, and the R$ 42.20 fee must be paid within seven days, under penalty of cancellation.
Obtaining the second copy of the new RG has become simpler in Goiás, which has waived the requirement to schedule an appointment for in-person service. According to the State Administration Agency, the request is now made via mobile phone, using the Expresso app, with document collection at a Vapt Vupt unit. The new RG, commonly known as the National Identity Card, is issued upon payment of a R$ 42.20 fee.
According to the rule, the document to be replaced must have been issued in the last five years, in the format of the CIN or the old RG. The application is digital, and the citizen only goes in person to the chosen unit to collect the identity. However, the simplified mode of the new RG is only valid for those who have already completed biometric registration, excluding part of the population from this shortcut.
How to request the second copy of the new RG without an appointment
The request for the second copy of the new RG in Goiás started to be valid at the beginning of June 2026, and is done completely digitally, through the Expresso app. According to the State Administration, after completing the application, the citizen needs to go to a Vapt Vupt unit, the Integrated Citizen Service Program of the Government of Goiás, only to collect the document. There is no longer a requirement for prior appointment for this service.

At the end of the application, the system generates a R$ 42.20 fee for the issuance of the new RG. This amount must be paid within seven calendar days, and if the deadline passes without payment, the request is automatically canceled, requiring a new application. The document to be replaced must have been issued in the last five years, in the version of the CIN or the old RG.
What happens after the request
Once the process is completed, the citizen receives an email informing them that the identity card is available for pickup. According to the material, the delivery of the new ID is done in person, at the same Vapt Vupt unit chosen during the request. The average issuance time for the second copy is up to 20 business days.
At the time of picking up the new ID, it is necessary to present the same certificate used in the last issuance of the identity, or a more recent version. This requirement applies as long as there are no changes in name, parentage, or marital status. During the pickup, biometric validation of the citizen is also performed, a step that confirms the identity of the person retrieving the document.
Who can use the simplified mode of the new ID
The simplified issuance of the new ID is exclusive to those who have already completed biometric registration. In these cases, according to the State Administration Secretariat, the data from the last issuance is reused, without the need for new biometric collection, photography, signature, fingerprints, and other personal information. This is what allows part of the in-person service to be dispensed with.
To be entitled to the service, the citizen must already have the CIN and be over 16 years old. It is also necessary not to have changed personal data since the last issuance, to keep the CPF linked to the current identity, and not to have registration issues or biometric exceptions. It is worth noting that the new ID issued through this method has the same validity as the document made by the conventional procedure.
The limits and precautions before requesting
Despite the ease, the rule of the new ID without an appointment has conditions that are worth knowing beforehand. The first is that the measure is from Goiás, and not a national rule, which means that residents of other states should not assume that the same service is already available where they live. Furthermore, any change in name, parentage, or marital status, or registration issues, disqualifies the citizen from this simplified mode.
Those who do not meet the requirements still need to resort to the conventional procedure to issue the document. Another precaution is with the deadlines, as the R$ 42.20 fee must be paid within seven days for the request not to be canceled, and the issuance can take up to 20 business days. Organizing these details avoids having to redo the entire new ID process.
The release of the second copy of the new ID without an appointment tends to reduce queues and make life easier for those who already have the National Identity Card in Goiás. Even so, the service depends on meeting specific requirements and paying attention to payment and issuance deadlines. For those who fit the rules, it is a faster way to keep the document up to date.
