The Family Registration Certificate (FRC), issued by Pakistan’s National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA), is an essential document that verifies the details of all family members. This certificate is vital for citizens, especially when applying for further documentation, traveling abroad, or proving family connections. As of November 2024, NADRA has kept the issuance fee for the FRC steady at Rs1,000.
Categories of Family Registration Certificate
NADRA offers the FRC in three main categories, each serving distinct documentation needs based on the applicant’s family circumstances:
- By Birth: Lists all members of a citizen’s family, including parents and siblings, to establish family lineage by birth.
- By Marriage: Includes details of the citizen’s spouse and children, making it valuable for establishing marital and parental records.
- By Adoption: Displays the adopted individual’s details alongside their guardian, suitable for families with adopted members.
Eligibility and Application Process for FRC
To ensure all family members are accurately reflected on the FRC, it is necessary that each member has a NADRA-issued 13-digit ID number. Those without this ID number will not appear on the certificate.
Pakistanis can obtain the FRC either by visiting the NADRA Registration Center (NRC) or through the Pak-Identity website for a more convenient online application process. For Pakistani citizens residing overseas, the FRC can be obtained by visiting the relevant mission office abroad.
FRC Fee Details for November 2024
The fee for obtaining an FRC remains fixed at Rs1,000 for November 2024, a rate consistent with previous months. This fee ensures citizens have affordable access to essential documentation needed for family verification.
This fee update confirms that NADRA continues to keep its services affordable for all citizens, making it easier for Pakistanis to manage their documentation needs without added financial burden.
