What 36302 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 36302 was registered in Multan District, Punjab, in Multan Division.

Reading it left to right: 3 is the province digit and is definitive — 3 always means Punjab. 6 selects the division inside that province, here Multan Division. 3 selects the district inside that division, which gives us Multan. The final pair, 02, is a local registration zone — roughly union-council level, recorded in this register as Multan — city registration zone.

WHAT IT DOES NOT TELL YOUThe prefix is a registration record, not an address. It does not prove where someone lives now, it is not a domicile certificate, and it says nothing about ethnicity or nationality beyond Pakistani citizenship. People who move keep the prefix they were first registered under.

TEHSILS OF MULTAN

Multan District is divided into 4 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.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Which district is CNIC code 36302?

36302 belongs to Multan District in Punjab, within Multan Division.

The first three digits (363) identify the district; the last two (02) identify a local registration zone inside it — recorded here as Multan — city registration zone.

Does a 36302 CNIC mean the holder lives in Multan?

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 Multan District?

Multan District covers 4 administrative tehsils: Multan City, Multan Sadar, Shujabad, Jalalpur Pirwala.

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 36302?

36302 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.
