NADRA directs married individuals to update their marital status

The National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) has stressed the importance of updating marital status in its records after the issuance of computerized marriage certificates by the Union Council.

This important step ensures the creation of an accurate and complete family record within the national database.
According to NADRA, updating one’s marital status helps prevent complications while applying for children’s B-Forms and CNICs (Computerized National Identity Cards). It also ensures that correct marital information appears on official documents such as passports.

Furthermore, updating marital status is necessary for the issuance of key legal documents including Family Registration Certificate (FRC) and Succession Certificate, both of which are often required for legal and administrative matters.

Citizens can update their marital status by visiting their nearest NADRA office or using the Pak-ID mobile application for added convenience.
