The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C5H6N3O2
+·HSeO4
−, contains two monoprotonated 2-amino-3-nitropyridinium cations and two hydrogen selenate anions which are connected through N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, building chains parallel to the a direction. These chains are further connected to each other by weaker C—H⋯O hydrogen-bonding interactions, leading to the formation of a three-dimensional network.
