National Database Registration Authority (NADRA) issues the new Smart National Identity Card to Pakistani citizens. Every Pakistani citizen needs a Computerised National Identity Card (CNIC), which serves as a basic form of identification and verifies both nationality and personal data.
Every person should have a valid CNIC on them at all times as part of the documentation process for property transactions and vehicle registration. It is a basic requirement for access to government and private services, including voting, opening bank accounts, getting a passport, and using social welfare programmes.
The new smart ID card from NADRA includes biometric security features that help guard against identity theft, fraud, and misuse of personal data. All citizens can use these cards as a form of identification because they contain biometric information.
In the past, people avoided going to NADRA offices, but with the most recent regulations and technological advancements, people can now apply for their ID cards online.
