NADRA mobile registration drive for Pakistanis in UK starts today


Earlier, it was reported that Pakistan’s National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) began a mobile registration drive across several cities in the UK, aiming to bring identity services closer to overseas Pakistanis.

The operation started on January 3, 2026 and is designed to cut travel time and long waits for people who need official documents. NADRA said the move is part of its wider effort to improve access for the Pakistani diaspora.

Mobile teams visit Aylesbury, Rochdale, Cardiff and Middlesbrough. The centres offer a range of services, including new registrations, renewals, modifications and reprints of NICOP, SNICOP and SPOC cards. Services for lost cards, cancellation of NICOP and SNICOP, family registration certificates and DUP clearance are also available.

NADRA advised citizens to visit the location nearest to them and to check updates through its official website or WhatsApp channel. A dedicated online portal has also been set up for complaints, with the aim of resolving issues without delay.
