The National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) has launched self-service kiosks at selected registration centers across Pakistan to simplify National Identity Card for Overseas Pakistanis (NICOP) services.
The initiative is designed to help overseas Pakistanis and their families access key identity card services more quickly through automated, self-service facilities.
Services Available at the Kiosks
Using the new kiosks, citizens can:
- Renew their National Identity Card for Overseas Pakistanis (NICOP)
- Apply for a replacement NICOP if it is lost or damaged
- Complete the cancellation of a deceased family member’s NICOP
According to NADRA, the self-service system is intended to reduce waiting times and streamline identity-related procedures.
The kiosks have been installed at major NADRA registration centers in the following cities:
- Karachi
- Islamabad
- Rawalpindi
- Lahore
- Gujranwala
- Sialkot
- Faisalabad
- Jhang
- Sargodha
