NISS Generator
Portuguese social security number (NISS) — 11 digits with embedded check digits.
Portugal Validation Generation
How generation works
The NISS generator builds a structurally valid sample using the same rules the validator enforces — check digits included. Use it for test data and fixtures; never for production records.
Install the package

Generator in C#
using DocumentNumber.Portugal.Niss.Generator;
