NADRA CNIC Expiry Checker
Enter your card type and the issue date printed on the card. The tool calculates the expected expiry date, how many days are left, and whether your card is still valid, expiring within 6 months, or already expired — with renewal guidance for each case.
Renewal guidance
- If your card is expired: apply for renewal as soon as possible. An expired CNIC can block bank transactions, SIM card activation, passport issuance and other official services.
- If your card expires within 6 months: start the renewal process now. NADRA accepts renewal applications before the expiry date, in Normal, Urgent or Executive speed.
- If your card is valid: no action is needed. Keep a note of the expiry date and renew in time.
- You can apply online through the Pak-ID app or the NADRA website, or visit the nearest NADRA registration center.
How to use
- Select your card type: adult CNIC, adult NICOP, or a child card.
- Enter the issue date exactly as printed on the card.
- For child cards, you may also enter the child age at issue so the tool can apply the age-18 rule.
- The expiry date, days remaining and card status update instantly, along with renewal guidance.
Note
This tool computes the expected expiry from the issue date only. NADRA records may differ (for example, after a correction or duplicate card), so please verify the actual expiry date on nadra.gov.pk or in the Pak-ID app before you apply or travel.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How does the NADRA CNIC expiry checker work?
Select your card type, enter the issue date printed on the card, and the tool calculates the expected expiry date, the days remaining, and whether the card is valid, expiring soon or already expired.
How long is an adult CNIC valid?
An adult CNIC is valid for 10 years from the issue date. A NICOP for adults is also valid for 10 years, while child smart cards and B-Forms are valid for 5 years or until the child turns 18.
When should I renew my CNIC?
You can apply for renewal up to 6 months before the expiry date. Renewing early avoids disruption to bank accounts, SIM registration and travel documents.
Is this expiry date official?
No. This tool computes the expected expiry from the issue date only. NADRA records may differ, so you should verify the actual expiry on nadra.gov.pk or the Pak-ID app before applying.
