How to Remove Unrelated Individuals from Your NADRA Family Tree

Many Pakistanis face a common issue when checking their NADRA family tree: some unknown or unrelated people appear in the record. This can cause problems in official work like CNIC renewal, passport, property transfer, and inheritance cases.

Good news is that NADRA has made the process simple. You can now easily remove unrelated individuals from your NADRA family tree both online and by visiting a NADRA center.

This guide explains everything in easy English + Pakistani style so you can fix your family tree without any confusion.

Why Are Unrelated People Showing in Your NADRA Family Tree?

There are several reasons why this happens:

Clerical mistake during data entry.
Someone wrongly added themselves to your family.
Old manual records were entered incorrectly.
CNIC misuse by another person.

Whatever the reason, it’s important to correct it as soon as possible.

Methods to Remove Unrelated Individuals

There are two main ways to correct your family tree.

1. Online via Pak Identity Portal

You can use NADRA’s Pak Identity Website to request corrections:

Go to id.nadra.gov.pk.
Login with your account.
Select “Family Registration Certificate (FRC)”.
Check your family tree.
If you find unrelated people → select the option for “Raise Objection”.
Submit your application online.

NADRA will review your case, and you may get a call or SMS for confirmation.

By Visiting NADRA Registration Center (NRC)

If online is difficult, visit your nearest NADRA center:

Take your original CNIC and copies of family members’ CNICs.
Ask for the Family Tree Correction Form.
Tell the officer about the unrelated entry.
Provide proof like Nikahnama, B-Form, or family documents.
Submit the form and get a receipt.

NADRA will investigate and remove the wrong person from your tree within a few days.

Your original CNIC.
CNIC copies of all family members.
Birth certificate or B-Form (if children are involved).
Nikahnama (if spouse issue).
Any other supporting document proving relation.
