What is ORCID?


ORCID is a non-profit organization that provides researchers with a unique digital identifier. These identifiers can be used by publishers, authors, editors, funding agencies, and institutions to reliably identify individuals in the same way that ISSNs and DOIs identify journals and articles. The ORCID website provides researchers with a page where your comprehensive research activity can be stored.


How can I obtain ORCID iD?

  • Registration is free at orcid.org/register. It takes only a few seconds.
  • Your registration only once and can use your ORCID iD permanently.
  • After registration, you will get a 16 digit unique ORCID record that you can use in terms of content and decide who will be able to see it. When you submit a paper, you can be sure that your work takes on a life of its own, you will always be credited. We encourage authors to sign up and submit their ORCID iD along with their paper submission.
