March 11, 2025 (MLN): National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) has launched Pakistan’s first “dematerialized digital identity card”.

The announcement was made during NADRA’s Silver Jubilee ceremony in Islamabad.

In a written message, Federal Minister for Interior and Narcotics Control, Syed Mohsin Raza Naqvi, hailed the launch of Pakistan’s first dematerialized digital identity card as a major milestone in digital identity transformation.

He revealed that once integrated into the Pak ID mobile app, citizens will be able to store their identity cards on their smartphones.

Additionally, a digital verification system will soon be introduced, enabling secure and instant verification for various services, as per the press release.

The initiative’s pilot phase is set to launch on Independence Day 2025.

The ceremony also included the unveiling of a commemorative coin by the State Bank of Pakistan, a special postage stamp by Pakistan Post, and a book documenting NADRA’s 25-year journey.
