ISLAMABAD – In a move aimed at simplifying the documentation process for parents, the National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) has introduced a user-friendly method for obtaining ‘B’ Form or Identity Cards for children below 18 years of age.
The process involves the following steps:
The parents, equipped with the child’s computerized birth certificate, are required to visit the NADRA office or court along with either one of the parents or the designated legal guardian.
In cases where both parents are present, one will act as the applicant, while the other will serve as the verifier.
If only one parent is available, the application form must be attested by a Gazetted Officer or a public representative, including Members of the National Assembly (MNA), Members of the Provincial Assembly (MPA), or municipal officials.

The child’s presence is mandatory for the identity card, and the process includes capturing a photograph and fingerprints for children aged 10 and above.
It is essential to note that in locations where computerized birth certificates are not available at the Union Council, NADRA will accept manual birth certificates or school certificates.
