PakValidate is a tool that helps you check if Pakistani personal and business information is correct. It works with common data like CNIC numbers, mobile phone numbers, tax IDs, bank accounts, postal codes, vehicle plates, and phone lines. It also gives details about these data points.
This tool runs on Windows systems that support .NET versions from 6.0 up to 10.0.
PakValidate works with a wide range of Pakistani data formats:
- CNIC (Computerized National Identity Card) numbers
- Mobile phone numbers
- NTN (National Tax Number)
- IBAN (International Bank Account Number)
- Postal codes
- Vehicle plate numbers
- Landline phone numbers
- STRN (Sales Tax Registration Number)
PakValidate not only checks the format and validity but also extracts useful information from these numbers, such as region codes or issuing authority details.
To run PakValidate on your Windows computer, you need:
- Windows 10 or later (64-bit preferred)
- .NET runtime installed (version 6.0 to 10.0)
- At least 2 GB of RAM
- 100 MB of free disk space
If you do not have the correct .NET runtime, you can download it from Microsoft’s official website.
Follow these steps to get PakValidate running on your Windows PC. No programming skill is needed.

On this page, you will find the latest release of the software. Usually, you should look for files ending with .exe or .msi if available, or a ZIP file containing the program.
Once you download the file, save it somewhere you can find it, such as your Desktop or Downloads folder.
If you downloaded an installer file (for example, .msi), double-click it to start the installation. Follow the instructions on the screen. Normally, you only need to click “Next” a few times.
If you downloaded a ZIP file, right-click the file and choose “Extract All.” Then open the extracted folder.

You might see a welcome screen or a small window where you can input data to check.
Once the program is open, you can enter different types of Pakistani data to check if it is valid.
For example, type a CNIC to check if it follows the right pattern and see extra details about it.
Most data fields will have a clear label telling you what to input.
- Make sure you enter numbers without extra spaces or symbols.
- Use the correct format for each data type. For example, CNICs usually look like
12345-1234567-1. - Some fields may require only digits; others might allow dashes.
- Use the help or info buttons inside the app for guidance on data formats.
If PakValidate does not open or runs into errors:
- Check if you have the right .NET runtime installed.
- Restart your computer and try launching again.
- Make sure your system meets the requirements listed above.
