Citizenship by Marriage – Legal Framework
The law governing citizenship by marriage is found in the Pakistan Citizenship Act, 1951, particularly:
- Section 10 – Citizenship by Marriage: A foreign woman married to a Pakistani man may apply for citizenship by registration.
- Ministry of Interior: Responsible for approving or refusing such applications.
- NADRA: Assists in verification of marriage records, identity documents, and family registration details.
In Islamabad, cases are processed at the Ministry of Interior and NADRA Headquarters. In Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP), applications go through local NADRA offices, but final approval still comes from the federal authorities in Islamabad.

Courts for Citizenship by Marriage

- Applications are delayed for years,
- Authorities refuse without justification, or
- Disputes arise regarding documents or eligibility.
- Islamabad High Court (IHC): Handles cases involving the Ministry of Interior and NADRA HQ, making it the key forum for Citizenship of Pakistan by Marriage Courts in Islamabad.
- Peshawar High Court (PHC): For applicants residing in KP, the PHC hears petitions against refusals or delays, functioning as the Citizenship of Pakistan by Marriage Courts in Peshawar.
- Supreme Court of Pakistan: In rare cases, appeals may be taken to the Supreme Court for final decisions on nationality law.
