The National Identity Card is a fundamental identification document in Pakistan, giving each citizen a unique identification number. It is issued by the National Database Registration Authority (Nadra).

The National Identity Card is essential for obtaining documents such as a driver's license, NTN, bank account, passport, and cellular connection. Every Pakistani citizen aged 18 and above is eligible for a NIC.

The ID card is directly connected to healthcare by linking medical records and to education by verifying identities for school admissions. It is also necessary for obtaining SIM cards. This document, with a unique 13-digit number, is integrated into a centralized system, providing a single, recognizable ID and reducing the need for birth certificates.
