Keep the official source beside the implementation decision
The source shelf helps an engineering team find the authority that maintains a changing rule or provider record. It does not determine applicability for an unnamed organization or prove that an integration, transaction, or system is approved.

- 2026-07-31
- Primary authorities
- NDPC, CBN, NITDA
- Use
- Decision evidence, not endorsement
Use NDPC material for the data review
Start with the official Act and Commission resources, then map the client's actual processing. Record the question, source, date, facts, responsible privacy owner, and approved technical requirement. Do not copy statutory phrases into a privacy page and call the work complete.
- Actual data flow
- Qualified applicability decision
- Control and validation evidence
- No NDPC approval claim
Use CBN material for provider and payment questions
CBN pages describe payment systems, oversight, provider categories, and related frameworks. Recheck the relevant record and then confirm capabilities, eligibility, API access, and current terms with the exact provider. A listing does not authorize Faith Forge Labs to act as that provider.
- Current provider category
- Direct technical documentation
- Account and credential owner
- Settlement and exception process
Use NITDA material at the right scope
NITDA maintains regulations and frameworks touching IT projects, interoperability, e-invoicing, and digital government. The organization and qualified owner decide which instrument applies. Faith Forge Labs can implement an approved specification and retain versioned test evidence.
- Document version and date
- Organization/sector context
- Technical acceptance criteria
- No government-vendor implication
