The National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA), Pakistan’s national ID and registration body, has established 43 NADRA facilitation centres across 11 districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa under a $46 million World Bank-funded effort to improve how people reach government services. An official project document says the centres are part of the KP Citizen-Centred Service Delivery Project, which sits in the social policy sector and is meant to make public services easier to access across the province.
Where the centres sit and what the project covers
The 43 sites are spread across 11 KP districts. The document does not name each district or list every service offered at each counter, but it frames the centres as citizen-focused outlets under the wider province-level programme. In plain terms, the aim is to bring registration and related public services closer to people who would otherwise travel far or wait in crowded offices.
NADRA is carrying out the KP Citizen-Centred Service Delivery Project with World Bank financing totalling $46 million. That money is meant to strengthen citizen-centred service delivery in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, not only to build counters but to support the broader push for more accessible government facilities.
Funding, progress and the revised deadline
Overall implementation has reached 72%, according to the official status report, which says the project remains on track. Outstanding work is to be finished within the revised implementation period. Completion is now scheduled for 31 December 2026.
The project started on 19 July 2023 with an original end date of 30 June 2026. That deadline was later moved to 31 December 2026 to allow more time for remaining activities. Opening the 43 NADRA facilitation centres in 11 districts is listed among the main achievements recorded so far.
