No birth certifcate for Pakistani fiance

[nadia&sameer 12]

Hi all,

My Pakistani fiancé is currently in the UK with a passport that says he was born in Pakistan. His parents never applied for a birth certificate when he was born. Here is the tricky part. While trying to get a BC in Pakistan we have come to realize he was more than likely born in Dubai not Pakistan. His parents moved back to Pakistan when he was young and registered him in Pakistan. What do we do? His passport and Pakistani National ID card both say he was born in Pakistan, but we are now pretty sure he was born in Dubai, but can't find any proof of it other than what his elderly mother remembers. We obviously don't want to lie on any of the paperwork going forward, (His G-325 was submitted with Pakistan as his birthplace because we didn't know any differently) but cannot find any proof in UAE that he was born there. We can't really update his passport either with a new birthplace without proof. I have no idea what we should do. Has anyone else in Pakistan had a similar issue and how did you handle?

Update: It turns out he does not have a birth certificate, but he does have an official Family Certificate by Birth from Nadra listing all of his family members including himself. Will that be enough?

what you are talking about is the bay form from nadra my fiance had a similar issue her birth certificate was given to the school and they lost it she never had any use of the birth certificate till the visa application so she had to have one attested by the family and have a local registery of her birth its not difficult to do specially since you have the family form already. Msg me if you need instructions on how to have a birth certificate made.
