Identity cards are issued to citizens by the government so that they can be entered into a database that will help the government formulate policies accordingly. Individuals receive identity cards at the age of 18 from the National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA). Similarly, all Pakistanis under the age of 18 can get the Nadra Juvenile Card.
A juvenile card replaces a Child Registration Certificate (CRC), also known as a B-Form in Pakistan. The Nadra Certificate is an alternative because it contains a Smart chip, which helps the authority store data better.
