NADRA Extends CNIC Renewal Services to E-Sahulat Franchises
The National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) has expanded CNIC renewal services to selected e-Sahulat franchises across Pakistan, aiming to improve public access and reduce overcrowding at NADRA registration centers.
The move is part of NADRA’s broader plan to simplify identity-related services and enhance citizen convenience.
Expanded Access for Citizens
Under the new arrangement, citizens can now renew their Computerised National Identity Cards (CNICs) at designated e-Sahulat outlets. These franchises already provide various government and utility services, making them easily accessible in urban and semi-urban areas.
As a result, applicants will no longer need to visit NADRA offices for routine renewals.
Services Covered Under the Initiative
Initially, the service allows standard CNIC renewals through selected e-Sahulat centers. NADRA officials said the process follows existing verification protocols to ensure data security and accuracy.
Moreover, the initiative aims to shorten waiting times and speed up service delivery for citizens.
NADRA’s Digital Transformation Drive
NADRA has steadily expanded digital and decentralized services in recent years. Earlier initiatives included mobile registration vans, online appointments, and self-service kiosks.
This latest step reflects NADRA’s commitment to modernize public service delivery and reduce administrative bottlenecks.
Public Impact and Convenience
The extension of CNIC renewal services to e-Sahulat franchises is expected to benefit thousands of citizens, particularly working individuals who face difficulty visiting NADRA centers during office hours.
Additionally, the move supports better workload management at NADRA offices nationwide.
What Happens Next
NADRA plans to gradually expand CNIC-related services at more e-Sahulat franchises based on public response and operational success. Officials said further updates will be announced as the program progresses.
Citizens are advised to confirm participating franchises before visiting.
Conclusion
By extending CNIC renewal services to selected e-Sahulat franchises, NADRA has taken a significant step toward improving accessibility, efficiency, and citizen convenience. The initiative strengthens Pakistan’s public service infrastructure through smarter service delivery.
