In July 2025, the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) began a new registration drive for poor families throughout Pakistan. This time, mobile vans are making it convenient to reach individuals in rural and urban areas alike. These vans are making registration easy from the comfort of one’s own hometowns—no long travel to a distant office!
Here’s how the vans operate and what you should know.
Why Are BISP Mobile Vans Important?
Most poor households in Pakistan, particularly in rural areas, are not able to commute to BISP offices. The distances are great, travel is expensive, and nobody knows where to find them. Now, mobile registration vans of BISP are fixing this issue.
These vans visit your location with professional personnel. All you need is your original CNIC. It is all digital and easy—no queues, no confusion, and no charge.
Rural vs. Urban Vans – What’s the Difference?
🏞️ Rural Areas
- Vans visit villages, small towns, and rural areas.
- They stop at schools, union council offices, or open spaces.
- Individuals arrive on foot, bicycle, or local transport.
- Workers assist with complete support since most do not know digital systems.
- Announcements are made by mosques, loudspeakers, and local leaders.
🏙️ Urban Areas
- Vans are stationed in cities, slums, and populous areas.
- They halt in the vicinity of bus stops, parks, or populous roads.
- Social media and news outlets report the date and time.
- There are more employees because of large population.
- Individuals are requested to produce full documents so that they can receive quicker service.
Step-by-Step Registration at the Van
