In Islamabad, the National Database Registration Authority (NADRA) provides National Identity Cards (NICs) to Pakistani citizens.
It combines advanced technology with clear business rules to ensure its authenticity and validity.
The ID card is crucial for obtaining various documents such as licenses, NTNs, bank accounts, passports, and cellular connections. Every Pakistani citizen aged 18 and above can get the national identity card.
The document contains essential personal information like name, date of birth, and biometric data, which are necessary for accessing basic services.
If you misplace your CNIC, it can lead to various complications. Therefore, it’s important for citizens to reach out to NADRA to replace the ID card if it’s lost.
Losing your CNIC used to be quite distressing in the past, but now NADRA provides a straightforward process for obtaining a new ID card without any hassle.
How do I get a new ID card in case of loss?
First, you need to visit the nearest NADRA facility.
As per the last update, you do not need to submit a copy of the previous ID.
NADRA suggests citizens register FIRs for lost CNICs.
