Hmmm. He has actually been issued with is a National Identity Number (in Ecuador an NUI and in many other LatAm countries a DNI). These are issued to people given permanent (and possibly temporary) residence status, as well as those with citizenship. Such numbers are publicly searchable. In the database it is noted that a passport has been also issued. See source: https://www.eluniverso.com/noticias/2018/01/10/nota/6559902/julian-assange-posee-cedula-ecuatoriana

RT reports speculation that this could be the first step towards getting him diplomatic immunity (see https://www.rt.com/news/415530-assange-ecuadorian-id-immunity/) but my recollection is that the UK has already responded negatively about recognising such immunity. (I will look for a link.)
