A national HIV registry, alongside back-calculation and additional data from a sample, can be used to estimate attainment of UNAIDS 90-90-90 targets and identify system gaps. The registry had advantages of providing a well-established, comprehensive capture of diagnosed persons and easily accessible data. The same approach can be used elsewhere if similar data are available.
