The National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) has introduced a new and simplified fee payment system to facilitate citizens and promote digital transactions. Under the new procedure, people will no longer need to wait in long queues at banks to pay for services such as national ID cards, passports, and other documents.
According to NADRA’s spokesperson, citizens can now pay their fees through mobile applications, online banking, and various electronic platforms. Additionally, direct cash payment facilities have also been made available at NADRA offices.
The spokesperson added that the new system will not only save time but also ensure that payments are more transparent and secure. Citizens have been encouraged to take maximum advantage of this facility.
Previously, paying fees for ID cards, passports, or other documents was a lengthy and complicated process. Applicants had to generate a challan, visit a bank to deposit the fee, and then return to the NADRA office to proceed with their application.
NADRA’s decision marks a significant step towards the “Digital Pakistan” vision, reflecting efforts to modernize public services and strengthen financial transparency across government institutions.
