The National Database and Registration Authority has expanded its citizen services by allowing parents to obtain the Child Registration Certificate (CRC), commonly known as the B-Form, for children up to the age of 10 through e‑Sahulat centers.
The new facility aims to make the child registration process easier and more accessible for families across Pakistan by enabling them to apply for the document at nearby franchise centers instead of visiting NADRA offices.
Easier Access for Parents
Under the updated service, parents can now visit their nearest e-Sahulat franchise to apply for a B-Form, which is an important identification document for children in Pakistan.
Previously, most applications for the Child Registration Certificate required a visit to NADRA registration centers. With the inclusion of e-Sahulat centers, families now have more convenient access points to complete the process.
Officials say the initiative is part of NADRA’s broader effort to improve public service delivery and expand digital access for citizens.
Required Documents
To apply for the Child Registration Certificate at an e-Sahulat center, parents must bring a birth certificate issued by the relevant Union Council.
This document verifies the child’s identity and ensures that the registration process is completed according to official records.
Once the application is submitted, the information is processed through NADRA’s digital system to generate the B-Form for the child.
Improving Citizen Services
The introduction of B-Form services at e-Sahulat centers is expected to reduce waiting times and make the process more convenient, particularly for families living far from NADRA offices.
By using franchise centers located in different neighborhoods, parents can now complete the registration process closer to their homes.
Finding the Nearest e-Sahulat Center
NADRA has also advised citizens that details about nearby e-Sahulat franchises are available on its official website. This allows parents to easily locate the nearest service center before visiting.
Officials believe the initiative will help increase child registration rates and improve accessibility of essential identity services for families across Pakistan.
