Nikahnama, union council and NADRA
A Muslim marriage in Pakistan is recorded on a nikahnama, the standard form set by the Muslim Family Laws Ordinance, completed by a licensed Nikah Registrar and usually in Urdu. The registrar reports the marriage to the local union council, and NADRA, the national database authority, issues a computerised Marriage Registration Certificate from that record.
The nikahnama carries the detail - the dower, the witnesses, any right of divorce delegated to the wife - while the NADRA certificate is the short computerised proof. Many applicants file both. Each is translated in full, with identity numbers carried over exactly.
