Quick steps (do these first)
1. Identify which province/area your CNIC/NICOP shows (Punjab / Sindh / KPK / Balochistan / Islamabad / AJK / GB). Procedures and portals differ by province.
2. Use the relevant police portal or the Police Khidmat Markaz (PKM) system for Punjab / many federal cases — apply online or book an appointment.

Province-by-province (short)
Punjab (including many Islamabad cases / AJK users directed here): Use Punjab Police / Police Khidmat Markaz (PKM) online service or the Punjab Police mobile app. Fee and turnaround are shown on the PKM site (example: fee ~Rs.500, TAT ~3 working days for many districts).
Islamabad: Islamabad Police issue PCC; portal/PKM route is available; TAT often ~72 hours but check local page/center.
Sindh: Use Police Record Verification System (PRVS) / Sindh police online verification portal (submit & track online).
Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK): KPK has a Police Clearance System / online portal for applications and tracking.
Balochistan & others: Balochistan and other provinces provide online options through their police portals or via PKM centers — check provincial police site.

CNIC / NICOP copy (or valid passport) + originals for verification.
Recent passport-size photographs (usually 2–4).
Filled application form (online form or downloadable PDF).

For overseas applicants: authority letter (attested by Pakistan mission) to authorize relative in Pakistan, plus attested documents — MOFA/consulate guidance applies.
