The National Database & Registration Authority (NADRA) has streamlined the process for obtaining Form B and identity cards for children under the age of 18. This comprehensive guide aims to provide clarity on the necessary steps involved in acquiring these essential documents.
Step-by-Step Guide:
- Visit a NADRA Center: Start by visiting a NADRA center with the child’s computerized birth certificate. Ensure that the child is accompanied by either one parent or a court-appointed guardian.
- Parental Presence: If both parents are available, designate one as the applicant and the other as the verifier in the application process.
- Verification in Absence of a Parent: In the absence of one parent, the application form must be verified by a Gazetted Officer or a public representative, including MNAs, MPAs, or officials from municipal bodies.
- Child’s Presence: The child’s presence is mandatory during the identity card process.
- Photograph and Fingerprints: Capture the child’s photograph and fingerprints, a mandatory requirement for children aged 10 and above.
- Alternate Birth Certificate Options: If the computerized birth certificate is unavailable at the Union Council, a school certificate or a manual certificate from the Union Council will be deemed acceptable.
