The National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) has issued a public advisory urging Pakistani citizens to avoid making unnecessary photocopies of their official documents.
Most transactions at NADRA offices only require the original documents or their corresponding NADRA-issued numbers. Photocopies are only necessary in specific situations where NADRA cannot access the documents online.
In its announcement, NADRA emphasized that citizens should refrain from photocopying national identity cards (CNICs), family registration certificates, and other documents issued by the authority.
The advisory warned that making unnecessary photocopies of important documents can lead to security risks, as these copies may be misused by unauthorized individuals. Citizens with complaints are encouraged to submit them via NADRA’s complaint portal.
