The National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) has introduced a simple online process for citizens and pensioners who need to renew their Proof of Life certificate.

People who need to verify their life status every month or every six months no longer have to visit a bank or NADRA office in person. You can complete the whole verification process right from home using your mobile phone.

How the Online Verification Process Works

NADRA has made the digital verification process smooth and hassle-free through its official PakID mobile application:

  • Download the Application: Install the official PakID app on your smartphone from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store.

  • Complete Biometric Verification: Follow the simple instructions on the screen to complete your facial or fingerprint verification using your phone's camera.

  • Automatic Certificate Delivery: Once your verification is approved, NADRA automatically issues your updated Proof of Life certificate.

  • Direct Bank Submission: The system automatically sends your verified certificate directly to your pension-providing bank or government department, so you do not need to submit physical paper documents.

Benefits for Senior Citizens and Pensioners

This digital service offers several major advantages for elderly citizens:

  1. No In-Person Visits: Saves elderly, unwell, or bedridden pensioners from standing in long queues at bank branches or registration centers.

  2. Family Support: If a pensioner cannot operate a smartphone, an immediate family member can complete the verification process on their behalf through their own PakID account.

  3. Completely Free Service: NADRA provides the Proof of Life Certificate service free of cost for pensioners.
