The 13-digit identification number is universally recognized throughout the country. It is a primary requirement for individuals, as it is mandatory for accessing services such as licenses, NTN, bank accounts, passports, cellular connections, and more.

All Pakistani citizens aged 18 and above are eligible to obtain the new smart NIC.

How to Apply for a New Smart ID Card

You can apply for your new smart NIC by visiting either the NADRA Registration Center (NRC) or the Pak Identity website.
