The divorce certificate in Pakistan is a legal document issued by the government. This document provides the only proof that you are now divorced.

However, if you want to use this certificate abroad, then the divorce certificate attestation in Pakistan will be required. Every document that is required to be used abroad will have to be attested by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The country where you are using this document may also require you to get it attested by the embassy or consulate. Some countries also require the services of an apostille in Pakistan on this document.

NADRA DIVORCE CERTIFICATE

People also generally call this document the NADRA divorce certificate in Pakistan. The software given by Nadra, issues this certificate, so people commonly call this the Nadra divorce certificate.

Once the software issues the certificate, your marital status in Nadra automatically goes from married to divorced.
