Pakistan Me Succession Certificate Ka Tareeqa (2026): NADRA Se Warasat Ka Certificate

Succession Certificate Kya Hai Aur Kis Kaam Aata Hai

Succession Certificate NADRA ki taraf se jari hone wala aik official document hai jo ye sabit karta hai ke marhoom ke qanooni waris (legal heirs) kaun hain aur har waris ka marhoom ki jaidad ya assets me kitna hissa hai. Kisi ke wafat ke baad us ka bank balance, shares, prize bonds, plot ya makaan transfer karwane ke liye sab se pehle yahi certificate chahiye hota hai — baghair is ke bank ya zameen ka daftar hissa taqseem nahi karta.

Aksar logon ko do alag documents me confusion hota hai — Succession Certificate aur Letter of Administration. NADRA ne dono aik hi process me jor diye hain:

Document	Kis liye
Succession Certificate	Marhoom ki chal-aasan (movable) jaidad ke liye — bank balance, shares, prize bonds, provident fund, gaari waghera
Letter of Administration	Marhoom ki ghair-manqula (immovable) jaidad ke liye — plot, makaan, zameen waghera

Amali tor par aap aik hi application me dono ke liye apply karte hain — NADRA khud tay karta hai ke kis asset par kaunsa document jari karna hai. Dono ka official fee schedule aik hi hai.

Pehle ye kaam sirf adalaton (civil court) ke zariye hota tha, jis me saalon lag jate thay. Succession Facilitation Act 2020 ke baad NADRA ke Succession Facilitation Units (SFU) ye certificate khud jari karte hain — adalat ki line ke baghair, kaafi tez aur sasta. Lekin ye raasta sirf us waqt kaam karta hai jab sab waris muttafiq hon aur koi tanaza (dispute) na ho. Tanaza ki surat me muamla phir adalat me jata hai.

Kaunsa Option — NADRA Ya Adalat?

Apply karne se pehle apne case ka jayza lein — NADRA ka raasta sab ke liye nahi hai:

Surte haal	Kaunsa raasta
Sab waris muttafiq hain, heirs wazeh hain	NADRA (SFU) — tez, 15–30 working days
Waris me jhagra hai, koi waris mukhalifat karta hai	Civil court (Succession Act 1925) — mahinein se saal
Koi waris gayab/la-pata hai	Civil court
NADRA se Decline Certificate mil gaya hai	Civil court
Sindh ya Balochistan se apply karna hai	NADRA — lekin wakil ke zariye (wahan application legal counsel se file hoti hai)

NADRA ka raasta barabar legal authority rakhta hai adalat ke certificate ki tarah (2025 ke amendment ke baad se) — bank, zameen ka daftar aur har idara NADRA ka jari karda certificate qabool karta hai. Farq sirf waqt aur cost ka hai, haisiyat ka nahi.

Zaroori Kagzaat

File adhoori hui to case ruk jata hai — ye Pakistan ke Succession Facilitation setup ki official requirements hain, ye tamam kagzaat jama kar lein apply karne se pehle:

• Marhoom ka death certificate — Union Council se jari hone wala computerised death certificate (CRMS number ke sath)
• Marhoom ke CNIC ki cancellation — NADRA se CNIC Cancellation Certificate (death certificate aur CNIC par apply hota hai, fee nahi lagti, taqreeban agle din mil jata hai)
• Family Registration Certificate (FRC) — marhoom ke khandan ka mukammal record; FRC by birth aur by marriage dono forms me manga jata hai (deceased ko record me shamil rakhein)
• Applicant ka apna CNIC/NICOP/POC
• Tamam waris (legal heirs) ke CNIC/NICOP ki copies — har waris ka 13-digit number darj hona lazmi hai
• Har asset ke original kagzaat: movable ke liye bank statements, prize bond details, gaari ke registration kagzaat; immovable ke liye registry papers, fard/mutation aur property tax record
• Letter of Authorization / affidavit — aik waris ki taraf se application dene ki ijazat; Oath Commissioner se attested hona lazmi hai (Schedule I format)

NADRA extra saboot bhi mang sakta hai — case me koi kami ho to office pehle notice bhejta hai, aur mukammal file ke baghair case agay nahi barhta. Is liye assets ki complete list bana kar le jayein.

Fee Kitni Hai (Official — 2026)

NADRA ki official fee schedule ke mutabiq fee total movable assets ki maliyat par munhasir hai:

Asset value	Official fee
Assets Rs 100,000 se kam	Rs 10,000
Assets Rs 100,000 ya zyada	Rs 20,000 (+ Rs 2,000 jahan applicable ho)
Duplicate ya amended certificate	Rs 5,000 (NADRA fee schedule me darj — apply karne se pehle confirm kar lein)
NADRA ki office ghalti ki correction	Muft (free)

Do ahem baatein fee ke baray me:

1. Fee upfront nahi li jati. Pehle case review hota hai — office in-charge ki approval ke baad fee pay hoti hai. Agar case decline ho jaye to ada ki hui poori fee laagu nahi hoti (adalati faisalon ke mutabiq rejected case par full fee nahi li ja sakti — is liye status confirm kiye baghair payment na karein).
2. Fee waqton-waqton par badal sakti hai. 2024 me Sindh High Court ne NADRA ki zyada fees par sawal uthaye thay, is liye apply karne se pehle apne shehar ke Succession Facilitation Unit ya NADRA helpline 1777 (24/7) se mojooda fee zaroor confirm kar lein. (NADRA ki official Succession page par fee section "Last Updated 17-09-2026" hai.)

Step-by-Step Tareeqa (Succession Facilitation Unit Se)

Step 1 — File tayyar karein: Upar di hui list ke mutabiq tamam kagzaat jama karein. FRC fresh ho (marhoom ka record darj ho), death certificate computerised ho, aur assets ki list mukammal ho.

Step 2 — Aik waris SFU jaye: Tamam waris ki ijazat se aik legal heir apne qareebi NADRA Succession Facilitation Unit me jaye. Apna CNIC, death certificate, CNIC cancellation, FRC, tamam waris ke CNIC copies, assets ke kagzaat aur attested authorization letter saath le jaye. (Sindh aur Balochistan me application wakil ke zariye file hoti hai.)

Step 3 — Data entry aur acknowledgment: NADRA officer marhoom ki tafseel, waris aur assets record karta hai aur aik signed acknowledgment receipt deta hai. Case ki scrutiny/review hoti hai aur approval ke baad fee pay karne ki hidayat milti hai.

Step 4 — Tamam waris ki biometric verification: Har waris ko biometric verification deni hoti hai — Pakistan me kisi bhi NADRA center par, ya bahir mulk muqarrar Pakistan mission par. 2025 se ye verification Pak ID mobile app ke zariye bhi ki ja sakti hai, jis se bahir-mulk waris ke liye asani hui hai. Har waris apni razamandi (consent) bhi deta hai.

Step 5 — Public notice (ishtihar): NADRA akhabaron me notice shaya karta hai — aik angrezi aur aik Urdu roznama (Sindh me Sindhi akhbar bhi) me, sath NADRA ke web portal par bhi. Is notice me awam se dawat di jati hai ke agar kisi ko is warasat par aitraz hai to aaye.

Step 6 — 14-din ka objection period: Koi bhi shakhs — chhota hua waris, dawedar ya qarz-dar — 14 din ke andar aitraz de sakta hai. Agar koi aitraz na aaye aur tamam formalities poori hon to case agay barhta hai. Aitraz aaya ya tanaza ubhra to NADRA Decline Certificate jari karta hai aur muamla civil court chala jata hai.

Step 7 — Certificate ka issuance: Sab kuch mukammal hone par NADRA Succession Certificate / Letter of Administration print kar ke jari karta hai — har waris ka hissa darj hota hai. Certificate par QR code hota hai jis se bank aur idare online tasdeeq (verification) kar lete hain.

Online Tareeqa — Kya Poori Application Online Hoti Hai?

Seedha jawab: poori application abhi online file nahi hoti. Aik waris ko Succession Facilitation Unit khud jana parta hai. Lekin online sahulat ye hain:

• Pak ID mobile app se tamam waris apni biometric verification aur consent de sakte hain — bahir-mulk rehnewalon ke liye ye bohat bara relief hai, mission jane ki zaroorat nahi.
• NADRA ke web portal par public notice ki publication hoti hai — apne case ka notice wahan check kiya ja sakta hai.
• Jari-shuda certificate ki online tasdeeq NADRA ke verification portal se hoti hai (QR code scan ya portal par check).

Duplicate ya reprint ke cases me mustaqbil me online filing aa sakti hai — filhal fresh application SFU se hi hoti hai.

Waqt Kitna Lagta Hai

Official timeline notice ki publication ke baad 14 din hai — lekin ye poori kahani nahi. Haqeeqat me:

Marhala	Waqt
Kagzaat jama + CNIC cancellation + FRC ki tayyari	3–7 din (agar sab tayyar ho to kam)
Biometric verification (tamam waris)	Har waris ki apni speed — aik gayab waris poore case ko rok sakta hai
Notice publication + 14-din objection period	Taqreeban 15–20 din
Issuance	2–5 working days

Amali tor par: 15–30 working days aik mukammal, ghair-mutanaza case ke liye. Court ke raaste se mawazna karein — wahan mahinein se saal lag jate hain. Sab se bara waqt bachane wala factor: file ka mukammal hona. Adhoora FRC, cancel na hua CNIC ya gayab waris — ye teenon cheezein case ko mahinoon rok sakti hain.

Aam Ghaltiyan (In Se Bachein)

• CNIC cancellation bhool jana: Death certificate lene ke baad marhoom ka CNIC NADRA se cancel karwana lazmi hai — ye step miss hua to case file hi nahi hogi.
• Purana ya adhoora FRC: FRC me marhoom ka record aur tamam waris darj hon — agar khandan ki maloomat purani ho to pehle FRC update karwayein.
• Waris ki ginti ghalat: Koi waris chhoot gaya to notice ke dauran aitraz aayega aur case decline ho jayega. Shuru me tamam heirs ki list mukammal rakhein.
• Attestation miss karna: Authorization letter Oath Commissioner se attested ho — baghair attestation ke file wapis ho jati hai.
• Fee pehle pay kar dena: Fee sirf office ki approval ke baad pay karein — approved hone se pehle payment ka koi faida nahi.
• Sindh/Balochistan me khud apply karna: Wahan application wakil ke zariye file hoti hai — khud jane se waqt zaya hoga.
• Assets ki adhoori list: Jo asset list me nahi, us par certificate nahi milega — baad me amended certificate ke liye alag fee aur waqt lagega.

Aksar Poche Jane Wale Sawal

Kya Succession Certificate ke liye adalat jana lazmi hai? Nahi — agar sab waris muttafiq hain aur koi tanaza nahi to NADRA ke Succession Facilitation Unit se hi certificate mil jata hai, jo adalat ke certificate jitna hi qanooni hai. Tanaza, gayab waris ya Decline Certificate ki surat me hi civil court jana parta hai.

NADRA Succession Certificate ki fee kitni hai? NADRA ki official fee schedule ke mutabiq: assets Rs 100,000 se kam hon to Rs 10,000, aur Rs 100,000 ya zyada hon to Rs 20,000 (jahan applicable ho wahan mazeed Rs 2,000). Duplicate ya amended certificate Rs 5,000 ka hota hai. Fee approval ke baad pay hoti hai, upfront nahi — aur apply karne se pehle helpline 1777 se confirm kar lein.

Succession Certificate lene me kitna waqt lagta hai? Notice publish hone ke baad official objection period 14 din hai. Amali tor par aik mukammal aur ghair-mutanaza case me 15–30 working days lagte hain — is me kagzaat ki tayyari aur tamam waris ki biometric verification ka waqt shamil hai.

Kya bahir-mulk rehne wala waris bhi apply kar sakta hai? Ji haan. Har waris ki biometric verification aur consent lazmi hai, lekin ye Pak ID mobile app ke zariye ya muqarrar Pakistan mission par di ja sakti hai. Application khud aik waris Succession Facilitation Unit me file karta hai.

Succession Certificate aur Letter of Administration me kya farq hai? Succession Certificate marhoom ki movable jaidad (bank balance, shares, prize bonds, gaari) ke liye hota hai, jabke Letter of Administration immovable jaidad (plot, makaan, zameen) ke liye. Dono ke liye aik hi application hoti hai aur aik hi fee schedule laagu hota hai.

Agar koi waris aitraz kar de to kya hota hai? Agar 14-din ke notice period me koi aitraz aata hai ya waris me tanaza ubharta hai to NADRA case decline kar ke Decline Certificate jari karta hai. Us ke baad muamla Succession Act 1925 ke tehat civil court me jata hai, jahan adalat faisla karti hai.

Source note: Is guide ki fee (Rs 10,000 / Rs 20,000 / Rs 5,000), required documents, 14-din objection period aur apply channels ki maloomat NADRA ki official fee schedule aur Succession Facilitation Unit ki official guidelines se 21 October 2026 ko check ki gayi hain. Fee aur process waqton-waqton par badal sakta hai — apply karne se pehle NADRA helpline 1777 (24/7) ya apne qareebi Succession Facilitation Unit se confirm kar lein.
