The National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) remains the competent authority in Pakistan for issuing Computerized National Identity Cards (CNIC) to eligible citizens. The CNIC, a crucial document for every Pakistani citizen aged 18 and above, incorporates advanced technology and stringent business rules to ensure its authenticity and validity.
Key Features of CNIC
The CNIC holds essential personal details, including the citizen’s name, date of birth, father’s name, and address, among other information. These details are provided by the applicant at the time of application.
Modifying Address on CNIC
If a citizen needs to update their address on their CNIC, they must visit a nearby NADRA office with the necessary supporting documents. The required documents typically include property papers and other proof of the new address.
Fee Structure for Address Modification
NADRA offers three service categories for address modification on the Smart ID Card:
- Normal Service: Rs 750
- Urgent Service: Rs 1,500
- Executive Service: Rs 2,500
These fees are applicable to any modification, including address changes, on the CNIC.
Application Rejection Policy
NADRA reserves the right to reject any application for address modification if the provided details and documents do not meet their satisfaction criteria.
For more information or to begin the process of modifying your address on your CNIC, visit your nearest NADRA office with the necessary documents. Ensure your address details are always up to date to avoid any inconvenience.
