ISLAMABAD – The National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) has urged all married citizens to update their marital status in official records at the earliest in order to avoid any legal complications in future.
In a recent post shared on Facebook, the authority pointed out that many individuals have registered their marriages with the Union Council but have not yet updated their marital status in the NADRA database.
The authority has emphasized that such individuals should promptly visit NADRA centers to have their marital status recorded correctly.
The update process is part of NADRA’s ongoing effort to maintain accurate and up-to-date citizen data.
Furthermore, NADRA has launched an SMS service to inform married citizens in this regard.
Citizens can obtain further information or guidance through NADRA’s helpline at 1777 (for mobile users) or 051-111-786-100, and by visiting the official website [www.nadra.gov.pk](http://www.nadra.gov.pk).
Marital Status Update Fee
NADRA charges Rs100 for updating marital status on a CNIC in Pakistan. The change is categorized as an “unprintable alteration.” Applicants are required to submit relevant documents such as a marriage certificate or Nikahnama, depending on their case, when requesting the modification.
