NADRA Clarifies B Form Issuance Rules Without Mother’s ID Card

ISLAMABAD: The National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) has addressed a common query regarding the issuance of B Forms for children, specifically concerning the absence of a mother’s identity card. Citizens frequently ask whether a child’s B Form can be processed solely using the father’s ID card.

NADRA officials clarified during a recent podcast that while the father’s ID can facilitate the process, the mother’s identity card is essential for the complete registration of the child. This clarification aims to eliminate confusion among parents navigating the registration process for their children.

This development holds significant implications for many families in Pakistan, particularly those facing challenges in obtaining identity documents. The requirement for both parents’ identification underscores the importance of comprehensive documentation in the registration process, which is crucial for accessing various government services and rights.

Looking ahead, NADRA is expected to enhance its outreach efforts to educate citizens about the registration requirements and streamline the process. Parents are encouraged to ensure that all necessary documentation is in order to avoid delays in obtaining their children’s B Forms.
