As an individual, you will need to clear the money laundering hurdles. A partial list of acceptable IDs and further links are at http://londonelegance.com/transpondia/id.shtml

Just wanted to add that to be issued a NI Number you need to show that you are either able to work in the UK or able to claim benefits. Since you are barred from both of the above by the nature of your visa you will not be able to get a NINO.
