NADRA Announces No Fee Changes for CNIC and B-Form in 2025
The NADRA CNIC B-Form fees will remain unchanged for 2025, ensuring affordable access to essential identification services for Pakistani citizens. The National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) confirmed the decision as of January 2025, maintaining the same rates for both standard and executive services.
Unchanged Fees for CNIC Services
The cost of obtaining a Computerised National Identity Card (CNIC) will stay consistent with previous years. For standard CNIC processing, citizens will pay Rs750, while urgent services cost Rs1,500, and executive services are priced at Rs2,500. These fees make it accessible for all eligible individuals aged 18 or older to obtain their CNICs.
To apply for a CNIC, applicants need to visit the nearest NADRA Registration Center with essential documents such as a birth certificate or matriculation result card and a family member’s CNIC copy. The CNIC plays a vital role in accessing services such as obtaining a driving license, opening a bank account, securing a passport, and even purchasing SIM cards.
Affordable B-Form Registration Fees
The NADRA CNIC B-Form fees include the cost for the Child Registration Certificate (CRC), commonly referred to as the B-Form. This certificate is available at a regular fee of Rs50, while executive services cost Rs500. The B-Form is a crucial document that registers newborns into NADRA’s system and is required for official documentation such as school admissions and medical records.
Parents can easily register their children by visiting a NADRA Registration Center and submitting the necessary documents. This streamlined process ensures every child has access to essential identity verification services.
Accessible Services for All Citizens
NADRA operates under the Ministry of Interior and prioritizes accessibility for all citizens. By keeping the NADRA CNIC B-Form fees unchanged, the organization reaffirms its commitment to making identity verification services affordable. These efforts contribute to improved access to healthcare, education, and financial systems for Pakistani citizens.
For detailed guidance, citizens can visit their nearest NADRA office or access information through NADRA’s official website.
The Importance of Identity Documents
Identity documents like the CNIC and B-Form are indispensable in Pakistan. They serve as gateways to vital services and ensure proper documentation for citizens. From linking medical records to enabling school admissions, these documents help create a reliable and efficient system for identity verification.
The decision to maintain current NADRA CNIC B-Form fees reflects the government’s dedication to supporting its citizens while promoting efficient service delivery.
