Officials from the National Statistics and Information Authority (NSIA) report that over the past three years, the authority has successfully distributed more than 8.2 million electronic national ID cards (e-Tazkira) to applicants.

Mohammad Haleem Rafe, the spokesperson for the NSIA, stated that since the inception of this process, over 14.2 million electronic national ID cards have been distributed across the country.

The spokesperson for the NSIA said: "Since the return of the Islamic Emirate, more than 8.2 million electronic national ID cards have been distributed in total. The authority is working to provide more facilities for the citizens. This current process began during the previous government, and since then, over 14.2 million electronic national ID cards have been issued to the citizens of the country."

At the same time, several applicants for electronic national ID cards are calling for the establishment of more distribution centers and easier access in their provinces.

Jalal Baitullah, a resident of Herat, said: "I ask the Islamic Emirate to establish a national ID card distribution center in Herat province. Poor people come here with their children and face a lot of hardships. The roads are bad, and there are numerous challenges when traveling from Herat to here."

Qudratullah, a resident of Kabul, said: "I came from Ghazni province to get my ID card. The process went well and was completed in one day. However, I request the Islamic Emirate establish a service center in Ghazni as well."

According to officials from the NSIA, the authority plans to establish national ID card distribution sites in the provinces of Herat, Balkh, Nangarhar, and Helmand in the near future to provide greater convenience to citizens.
