A. Identification
This part contains the following:
  • Two spaces for regional [mkoa] code.
  • Two spaces for district [wilaya] code.
  • Three spaces for ward [kata] code.
  • Three spaces for enumeration area code.
  • Three spaces for writing household number.
  • Three spaces for writing questionnaires' number.

[p.22]
Codes to be written in the identification part are for that specific area only. All this will be provided in the enumeration area map (EA map) of your area and in the list of household heads (if available), also that of village/hamlet/street [kijiji / kitongoji / mtaa] chairmen. Therefore, you are supposed to transfer the codes from the map or list of household heads (if available), write and shade in the space provided.
Every household in your enumeration area must be given a different number, as follows:
  • Every private household must be given a number from 001 onwards. These numbers should be written and shaded in the space provided. The first private household to be enumerated will be numbered "001", the second "002", the third "003", and so on.
  • For collective households, the numbers should start from "951", the second number "952", the third number "953", and so on.

Questionnaire numbers will start from "001" onwards, depending on the number of people in the household.
Every household that you will list must start with a new questionnaire. If the household is large and needs more than one questionnaire, the second questionnaire will be numbered "002", the third "003", and so on. Once you start enumerating a new household you must start with a new questionnaire, which you will number "001".
For example, if you go to a household where 23 people slept in the night before the census day. Since only six people can be listed in a questionnaire, it will be necessary to fill four questionnaires. The first questionnaire will be numbered 001, the second 002, the third 003, and the fourth 004. When you go to the next household the first questionnaire you will use will have household number 002 and questionnaire number 001, not 005. If there is no collective household in your area, the household number of the last household will be the total number of households in that area.
