How to Apply for NADRA Record Update Online
NADRA has simplified the process by dividing Home-Based Facility to Update Personal Records into two easy-to-understand categories. Whether you need a physical change on your card or just a database correction, you can do it via the Pak-Identity app.
Category 1: Printable Information (Update Card)
If you want to change details that are printed on your physical CNIC, you must select the “Update Card” option. This includes:
- Your Name or Father’s/Husband’s name.
- Permanent or Current Address.
- Date of Birth.
Category 2: Non-Printable Information (Update Info)
For changes that are only stored in the NADRA database and do not appear on the card face, use the “Update Info” option:
- Family member records.
- Educational qualifications or Mother tongue.
- Marital status (for males or non-spouse name changes).
Table of Information: Service Comparison
| Feature | Printable (Update Card) | Non-Printable (Update Info) |
| Physical Card Issued? | Yes, a new card is sent to you | No, only database is updated |
| Key Example | Change of Address/Name | Change of Education/Language |
| Processing Fee | Standard Renewal/Modification Fee | Lower Service Fee |
| Delivery Mode | Home Delivery via Courier | Digital Confirmation |
Special Note: Updating Marital Status
For female applicants, changing status from “Unmarried” to “Married” requires a new card because the husband’s name must be printed. In this case, always choose the “Update Card” option to ensure your identity document remains legally valid for all government services.
Final Thoughts
The NADRA Home-Based Facility is a game-changer for millions of Pakistanis, especially for those living in remote areas or abroad. By using the official Pak-Identity app, you not only save travel costs but also gain access to a faster and more transparent tracking system. Always ensure you are using the official NADRA portal to protect your sensitive data from fraudulent third-party websites
