How to Apply for Family Registration Certificate (FRC)?

The Family Registration Certificate (FRC) is a tool to identify your NADRA records. It provides family structure. Note that the Family Registration Certificate (FRC) often helps with embassy applications but cannot be used for legal purposes. You can apply for FRC in these three categories:

• By Birth: The certificate produced will show the family details of your parents and siblings.
• By Marriage: The certificate issued contains a list of your family, including your spouse and children.
• By Adoption: The certificate issued will identify your family, including your guardian’s details.

The Family Registration Certificate shows the family structure (by birth or marriage) of the applicant as registered with the National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA). If a person is not registered with NADRA and does not have a 13-digit ID number, their details will not be displayed in the FRC.
