Previously, completing biometric verification required users to physically visit a NADRA e-Sahulat Centre. With the PakID integration, users can now complete their biometric verification remotely through their smartphones, subject to applicable NADRA verification requirements, reducing the need for physical visits, said a news release.
The facility offers a particularly significant convenience for overseas Pakistanis engaged in trade-related activities in Pakistan. Eligible overseas users can now complete their PSW biometric verification remotely through the PakID Mobile App.
To ensure a smooth transition and uninterrupted facilitation for the business community, both verification channels will remain operational during an interim period. During this phase, users can choose to verify their biometrics either digitally via the PakID Mobile App or continue visiting NADRA e-Sahulat Centres.
“The integration with NADRA’s PakID Mobile App reflects our commitment to listening to the PSW community both in Pakistan and overseas and responding to their needs”, said Syed Aftab Haider, CEO of PSW. “By enabling remote biometric verification, we are removing another physical trip in the onboarding process and making the PSW user journey more convenient, accessible, and user-driven.”
Integration with the PakID app eliminates the only physical visit required for PSW subscription and makes the entire process seamlessly digital. The integration reflects PSW’s continued focus on using digital solutions to make its services more accessible, responsive, and convenient, while addressing the practical needs of businesses and Pakistanis engaged in trade from abroad.
