Payment Method: Debit/Credit card, EasyPaisa, or JazzCash for the processing fee.
Attester: A blood relative (parent or sibling) with a valid CNIC to verify your application digitally.
2. The Digital Application Process
Account Creation: Download the Pak Identity app from the Play Store or App Store. Register using your email and phone number.
Start New Application: Select the option for Issued ID Card and then choose Fresh CNIC.
