Ministry of Interior Pakistan Website: interior.gov.pk & Online Services
The Ministry of Interior’s official website — interior.gov.pk — is the front door to Pakistan’s internal-security administration. This guide covers what’s on the site, which services are online, and how to avoid the many fake “ministry” websites.
Quick answer: The official website is interior.gov.pk. It hosts ministry notifications, press releases, the telephone directory, and links to departmental portals: NADRA (nadra.gov.pk), DGIP/passports (dgip.gov.pk), FIA (fia.gov.pk). Beware lookalike domains — only .gov.pk addresses are official.
What’s on interior.gov.pk
The site carries the ministry’s organogram, minister/secretary profiles, official notifications and SROs, press releases, the telephone directory, and tender notices. For researchers and journalists, the notifications archive is the authoritative record of policy decisions — from passport fee schedules to proscribed-organisation listings.
Online services
Most citizen services live on departmental portals rather than the ministry site itself: passport applications and tracking on dgip.gov.pk (see our online passport guide), CNIC services on nadra.gov.pk, FIA complaints on fia.gov.pk. The ministry site links to all of them — start there to be sure you’re on the genuine portal.
Department websites
- interior.gov.pk — the ministry itself
- nadra.gov.pk — NADRA (CNIC, FRC, verification)
- dgip.gov.pk — DGIP (passports, immigration)
- fia.gov.pk — FIA (complaints, immigration checks)
Beware fake websites
Scam sites mimic government portals to harvest CNIC numbers and “fees” — the same fraud pattern DGIP flagged for fake Google Maps listings. Rules: official sites end in .gov.pk; the government never collects fees via JazzCash or personal accounts; when in doubt, navigate from interior.gov.pk rather than Google results.
