What is an FRC?

A Family Registration Certificate (FRC) is a NADRA document listing family members as they are recorded in NADRA’s database — for example parents and siblings, or a spouse and children. It is commonly requested for visa and immigration cases, such as family or spouse visas, and sometimes in legal matters like succession.

Before you apply

  • Your family members must already be registered and linked to you in NADRA’s records. If someone is missing or a relationship is wrong, that has to be corrected first, which can add time.
  • Check exactly which type of certificate the embassy or authority wants. NADRA issues several family and civil-status certificates, and the requirement letter usually names the one needed.
  • Keep your CNIC or NICOP valid. An expired card can delay the application.

How to apply

  1. Open NADRA’s official website and its Pak Identity online service or the Pak-ID mobile app.
  2. Choose the family registration certificate and the family members to include.
  3. Verify your identity as the system asks, and pay the fee shown at checkout.
  4. Track the application in your account and download or collect the certificate as instructed.
