In a significant move towards modernizing public services and embracing digital transformation, the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) Police has officially launched the Police Sahulat Markaz mobile application. This innovative app allows residents of the province to apply for Police Clearance Certificates (PCC) — commonly required for visa applications, employment abroad, and immigration purposes — entirely online, without the need to visit police stations.
The launch, announced in early January 2026, marks a major milestone in KP Police’s ongoing efforts to provide citizen-centric, transparent, and efficient services.
Ending the Traditional Hassle
Previously, obtaining a Police Clearance Certificate in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa often involved time-consuming visits to local police stations, manual paperwork, multiple verifications, long queues, and sometimes delays due to bureaucratic processes. Applicants had to submit physical documents, get signatures from various officers, and make repeated trips for collection.
The introduction of the Police Sahulat Markaz app changes all that. As a KP Police spokesperson stated:
“By introducing the app, we aim to reduce queues and make police clearance certificates accessible with just a few taps on a mobile phone.”
This digital initiative is especially beneficial for individuals applying for overseas visas, as PCCs are a mandatory requirement for many countries.
How the New System Works
The process is designed to be simple, secure, and user-friendly:
- Download the App — Available on Google Play Store as the official “Police Sahulat Markaz” application developed by Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Police.
- Select the Service — Open the app and choose the “Police Clearance for Visa” option.
- Fill in Details — Provide essential information including your destination country, district, purpose of travel, and whether you’ll collect the certificate yourself or authorize a relative (with their details if applicable).
- Verification & Payment — The system performs automatic verification through NADRA integration. Once verified, a PSID number is generated for fee payment via Easypaisa.
- Processing & Collection — After successful submission and payment, the application is processed digitally. Applicants can typically collect their Police Clearance Certificate from the nearest Police Sahulat Markaz within three days of verification.
The entire process is paperless, secure, and significantly faster than the traditional method.

Broader Impact on Digital Governance
This launch is part of KP Police’s larger digital transformation agenda, which includes services like reporting lost items, registering domestic servants, traffic-related applications, and more — all accessible through the same app. By integrating with national databases like NADRA and digital payment gateways like Easypaisa, the initiative promotes transparency, reduces corruption opportunities, and saves valuable time for citizens.
The move aligns with the provincial government’s vision of efficient public service delivery under the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Right to Public Services Act.
Looking Ahead
As Pakistan continues its journey toward a more digitized society, initiatives like the Police Sahulat Markaz app set a strong example for other provinces and departments. For residents of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa — especially those planning international travel — this development brings much-needed convenience and efficiency.
To get started, simply search for “Police Sahulat Markaz” on the Google Play Store and download the official app today. A hassle-free Police Clearance Certificate is now just a few taps away!
