NADRA has announced a one day mobile registration drive in the United Kingdom on Saturday, January 24, 2026, to provide convenient access to essential identity document services for overseas Pakistanis. The initiative is designed to reduce the need for traveling to permanent NADRA centers and allows residents to complete important applications and updates locally. Mobile teams will operate from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM local time, offering a range of services that cover both individual and family identity documentation, streamlining access for Pakistanis living abroad.
Through the mobile registration points, overseas Pakistanis can access a variety of services including new applications, modifications, renewals, and reprints for SNICOP and SPOC, including lost cards. The drive also offers cancellation of NICOP or SNICOP, and Family Registration Certificate clearance. By providing these services in mobile units, NADRA ensures that residents in locations with limited access to permanent offices can manage their identity documents without extended travel. The authority emphasized that the initiative is part of its broader commitment to supporting overseas Pakistanis by facilitating easier, faster, and more accessible service delivery.
The mobile registration drive will cover two specific locations in the UK. Residents of Burton upon Trent in the Birmingham region can visit Jamia Hanfia Ghosia Mosque at 24 Princess Street, DE14 2NW, while those in Doncaster in the Bradford region can access services at 26A Thoresby Avenue, DNQ 5BQ. Both locations will operate during the same hours, from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM, allowing sufficient time for applicants to complete their submissions efficiently. NADRA officials highlighted that setting up temporary mobile points is an effective method to bring essential services closer to the Pakistani diaspora, particularly in areas where permanent NADRA offices are not available.
Overseas Pakistanis are encouraged to plan their visits during the designated hours to take advantage of the mobile registration services. By expanding access through mobile units, NADRA aims to simplify the process of maintaining and updating official identity documents such as NICOP, SNICOP, and FRC, which are essential for legal, financial, and administrative purposes abroad. This drive reflects NADRA’s ongoing efforts to integrate technology and outreach programs to improve service delivery, enhance convenience for overseas citizens, and strengthen engagement with Pakistanis living outside the country.
