NADRA Launches Mobile App for Birth, Death, and Marriage Registrations from Home

In a major step toward digitizing public services, the National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) has launched a mobile application that enables Pakistani citizens to register vital life events—such as births, deaths, and changes in marital status—from the comfort of their homes. The innovative service, which represents a significant milestone in the country’s digital governance roadmap, aims to eliminate the need for in-person visits to government offices, thereby reducing delays and cutting down on bureaucratic hurdles.

The initiative was unveiled during the second official meeting of the National Registration and Biometric Policy Framework Implementation Committee. This high-level gathering brought together representatives from federal ministries, regulatory authorities, and provincial departments to discuss the modernization of Pakistan’s civil registration system. At the heart of the discussion was the digital transformation of NADRA’s services, culminating in the presentation of the mobile application to committee members.

Chairman NADRA, Lieutenant General (Retd) Muhammad Munir Afsar, highlighted the app’s importance in streamlining how citizens interact with vital public services. “This mobile application enables citizens to register life events online from their homes. Initially, the rollout will begin in Punjab,” he stated. The phased launch in the country’s most populous province sets the stage for broader national adoption in the coming months.

The digital system is being bolstered by an expansion of biometric verification infrastructure at the union council level. This will allow local governments to authenticate submissions through NADRA’s biometric services, ensuring that registrations are not only more convenient but also secure and accurate. During the meeting, a live demonstration of the mobile app was delivered to senior officials from the Local Government Department, showcasing the user-friendly interface and streamlined process.

Complementing the mobile rollout, NADRA is also establishing one-window counters at union councils in Islamabad. These dedicated service points are designed to accommodate users who still prefer or require in-person assistance, maintaining inclusivity while embracing a digital-first approach.

Another key highlight from the meeting came from Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) Chairman, who briefed attendees on progress toward a national biometric policy. This upcoming framework is set to standardize biometric authentication across institutions, laying the groundwork for a secure and unified digital identity ecosystem across the country. Such initiatives are expected to unlock a host of possibilities for future e-governance efforts and identity-linked services.

The launch of NADRA’s mobile application signals a progressive shift in Pakistan’s approach to public administration. By embracing technology, the government is not only reducing the public’s dependency on intermediaries but also moving closer to a citizen-centric model of governance. The app is poised to significantly ease the registration process, particularly for residents in remote or underserved areas who have traditionally struggled with access to these essential services.

As NADRA continues to innovate and digitize its services, this new mobile application stands as a testament to the country’s broader commitment to improving transparency, accessibility, and efficiency within its public service infrastructure.
