The National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) has announced the fees for correcting the date of birth on national identity cards. The fees are available in Pakistani rupees and US dollars.
Citizens can request age modifications on their ID cards, subject to verification and required documentation. Applicants must provide proof of birth, such as a birth certificate or other official records.
Requests can be submitted at NADRA Registration Centers (NRCs) across Pakistan. Citizens living abroad can apply through Pakistani embassies. Applications are also accepted via the Pak ID mobile application.
The NADRA fee varies depending on the requested duration of age correction and the applicant’s location, whether inside Pakistan or overseas.

For more than two years and up to three years, the fee is Rs.3,000. If the requested change exceeds three years, NADRA charges Rs.5,000.
A second age correction within the same ID card costs Rs.10,000.
For overseas applicants, NADRA fees start at $15 and go up to $125. Changes of up to one year are charged $15. For corrections of more than one year but up to two years, the fee is $25.
