What 34101 tells you
A Pakistani CNIC is thirteen digits long, and the first five of them are not random. They are a location record, written at the moment the card was registered. A card whose number opens with 34101 was registered in Gujranwala District, Punjab, in Gujranwala Division.
Reading it left to right: 3 is the province digit and is definitive — 3 always means Punjab. 4 selects the division inside that province, here Gujranwala Division. 1 selects the district inside that division, which gives us Gujranwala. The final pair, 01, is a local registration zone — roughly union-council level, recorded in this register as Gujranwala — city registration zone.
TEHSILS OF GUJRANWALA
Gujranwala District is divided into 5 administrative tehsils. NADRA’s internal registration zones do not map one-to-one onto tehsil boundaries, so treat this as the administrative picture rather than a decoder for digits four and five.
| # | Tehsil | District | Province |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Gujranwala City | Gujranwala | Punjab |
| 2 | Gujranwala Sadar | Gujranwala | Punjab |

COMMON QUESTIONS
Which district is CNIC code 34101?
34101 belongs to Gujranwala District in Punjab, within Gujranwala Division.
The first three digits (341) identify the district; the last two (01) identify a local registration zone inside it — recorded here as Gujranwala — city registration zone.
Does a 34101 CNIC mean the holder lives in Gujranwala?
No. The regional prefix records where the card was registered with NADRA, not where the holder lives now. People who move, or who register at a family address, keep the original prefix.
It is also not proof of domicile. Domicile is a separate certificate issued by the district administration.
Which tehsils fall under Gujranwala District?
Gujranwala District covers 5 administrative tehsils: Gujranwala City, Gujranwala Sadar, Kamoke, Nowshera Virkan, Wazirabad.
Tehsil boundaries and NADRA's internal registration zones are not the same thing, so the last two digits of a CNIC do not map one-to-one onto this list.
How reliable is the code 34101?
34101 is a documented anchor code — it appears consistently in public records and published examples, so the district mapping is solid.
NADRA has never released a complete district-to-prefix table, which is why this register marks every entry as either a documented anchor or a derived code.
