Birth certificate and b form or form b, or CRC are two different documents, you can get the birth certificate from the union council or hospital. A hospital birth certificate was given to parents at the time of childbirth. On the other hand, NARDA issue a b form or CRC which means Child Registration Certificate.

In this article, I am going to tell you the requirements for applying b form or CRC (Child Registration Certificate from NADRA. It’s compulsory for every child. Child Registration Certificate (CRC) is a registration document used to register minors under the age of 18 years. It is the basic right of a child to get a registration certificate from the place of origin.

Now, there is no need for childbirth certificate from the union council to apply B form/CRC, you just have to tell a name and date of birth of child to data operator.

 There are many uses of B form, some blow:

Uses of B Form / CRC:

1. The child can take admission in school
2. He/She can apply for a passport
3. The child can open a bank Account

Requirements of B form:

1. One of the parents or guardians must be present with an original or copy of CNIC.
2. One of the parent's CNIC status must be married.
3. In the case of a guardian, a guardianship certificate from the court is required.
