Pak ID app users can now complete the entire biometric verification process for Punjab-registered vehicles using their smartphones. The process involves facial verification, fingerprint verification, and payment of applicable fees.
Imagine you want to sell your car to someone else. Now, you can use your phone to take a picture of your face and scan your fingers. This helps the government know it's really you selling the car. The buyer then uses their phone to do the same thing, and they pay the fees to make the sale official.

A Convenient New Feature for Vehicle Owners and Buyers
The introduction of biometric verification on the Pak ID app is a significant step towards streamlining the vehicle transfer process in Punjab. This feature allows users to complete the entire verification process using their smartphones, eliminating the need for physical visits to NADRA offices. The process involves facial verification, fingerprint verification, and payment of applicable fees.
The facial verification process requires users to frame their face inside the on-screen circle against a plain white background in a well-lit area. The fingerprint verification process involves scanning the user's fingers as instructed on-screen. Once the verification process is complete, the user can share the generated Tracking ID and PIN ID with the buyer to proceed with the transfer.
The buyer can then complete the biometric verification process using the provided Tracking ID and PIN ID. The payment of applicable fees can be made using any supported payment method, including e-Sahulat, Raast, EasyPaisa, JazzCash, or Debit/Credit Card.
This development is expected to simplify the vehicle transfer process and reduce the risk of fraud. It also demonstrates NADRA's commitment to providing convenient and secure services to its customers.
