Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Births, Deaths, Marriages and Divorce or Dissolution of Marriages (Registration and Certification) Rules, 2021

The Government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has promulgated these rules to standardize the registration and certification of vital events, including births, deaths, marriages, and divorces, at the village and neighbourhood council levels. The regulations mandate specific reporting timeframes, such as ninety days for birth registration, and outline detailed procedures for delayed filings, certificate issuance, and identity verification through NADRA databases. Furthermore, the rules assign clear operational responsibilities to the provincial Department and local Chairmen for licensing marriage registrars, maintaining official registers, coordinating with health and education sectors, and implementing public awareness initiatives.
