KABUL (Afghan Verified) — The National Statistics and Information Authority provided non-in-person paper tazkira services to 102,538 Afghans living abroad during solar year 1404.
The services included 19,320 new paper tazkeras, 6,156 duplicates, 51,371 confirmations, and 25,691 corrections or amendments, according to the authority.
These documents were issued remotely through the citizens' legitimate or principal relatives, allowing Afghans overseas to access identification services without physical attendance.
The National Statistics and Information Authority, responsible for official statistics and civil documentation in Afghanistan, highlighted this effort as part of its operations in the solar year 1404, which spans the Afghan calendar period ending prior to the report's release.
The exact figures underscore the scale of demand for such services among the Afghan diaspora, with new issuances representing the largest category at nearly 19 percent of the total, followed by confirmations at about half the volume.
