If my fingerprint was not recorded properly at either branch of the Nadra, it is not my fault. It is the failure of Nadra's man and machine power. Otherwise, it is not possible that the fingerprint of the same person comes out differently at two Nadra branches (of Lahore and Karachi respectively).
Enabled by huge advances in technology, our evolving social dialogue has become accelerated and unfettered, on a global scale. It is critical to harness technology as a force for dynamic economic improvement: democratizing access to banking and payments. As such, we need to look beyond mobile wallets or digital payments and support those in need of easier access to payment and fintech solutions. A more inclusive form of payment technology is essential.
Even the most reluctant individuals are likely to have succumbed to contactless payments and some form of digitized banking in recent times. This will have the positive impact of making the needed transition to biometrics more seamless. Using fingerprints or facial recognition to unlock phones or access apps is not unusual. If anything, they have been convenient and comforting additions to the surge in tech innovations of the last couple of decades. There is a relief in knowing that these portals are being secured by methods that are almost impossible to replicate.
It is possible to print and fill out the biometric form with Inkpad, which you can purchase from any stationery shop. SCAN the filled biometric paper with a scanner and submit it to us at appli...@nadracardcenter.co.uk for same-day submission.

Rule 17f-2 exempts employees from fingerprinting who do not:
Q3: Is it permitted for an EFS vendor to receive and electronically process fingerprints for an individual on a hardcopy fingerprint card?
A3: Yes, an EFS vendor may receive and electronically process fingerprints collected on a hardcopy card that was sent to the EFS vendor from a broker-dealer or funding portal organization provided that the collection of the fingerprints was within the US or its territories. EFS vendors are required to transmit only electronic fingerprints to the FINRA Fingerprint Program, and therefore, at no time is it permitted for an EFS vendor to forward a hardcopy card to Sterling. The FINRA Fingerprint Program prohibits an EFS vendor from collecting, directly receiving, or processing fingerprints from individuals outside the US or its territories.
Firms with questions about using Sterling as their fingerprint collection option should contact Sterling Client Support at [email protected] or (833) 794-2009. Firms that choose to use another vendor to collect fingerprints should contact the vendor directly.
Q11: How do I find out if a fingerprint submission was received?
A11: Fingerprint submission status information is reported in CRD and FPRD. See the Funding Portal FAQ and/or Broker-Dealer FAQ for more information.
FINRA or Sterling will notify firms when there is an error processing an electronic or hardcopy fingerprint submission. Notification is sent to the email address of the EFS vendor or firm that submitted the fingerprints.
Q18: Why does the FBI determine some fingerprints as illegible?
A18: The FBI may determine that fingerprints are illegible for a number of reasons. For example, if the individual's ridges on their fingerprints are worn down or prints do not meet minimum quality thresholds. When the FBI determines that fingerprints are illegible, the illegible result is posted in CRD and another fingerprint is required, unless it is a third illegible result that meets the Name Check requirements.
Barcode stickers are not required. Firms and EFS vendors do not need to provide barcodes with fingerprint submissions.
Sterling assigns a barcode through an automated process upon receipt of each fingerprint submission. Sterling immediately sends to firms and EFS vendors the barcode it auto-generates for each fingerprint transaction. The way in which firms and EFS vendors are notified of the barcode depends on how they connect with Sterling. Organizations that use encrypted email receive their barcode numbers via email. Those organizations that use an API connection receive barcodes via API.
If a legacy barcode is included on a fingerprint transaction, it will be overwritten by a new barcode assigned by Sterling and the firm or vendor will be notified of the new barcode.
Firms and EFS vendors are to use the Sterling-assigned barcode as the unique identifier for each submission. When making fingerprint inquiries to FINRA, use the barcode assigned by Sterling as FINRA has access to this information.
Firms with questions on this process should contact Sterling Client Support at [email protected] or (833) 794-2009, and EFS vendors should contact the Sterling EFS Support.
Q22: Can I use the FBI Standard FD-258 fingerprint card to submit hardcopy fingerprints?
A22: No, the FBI Standard FD-258 fingerprint card format does not include fields that capture specific information required for processing and will be rejected. Only FINRA-approved fingerprint cards from Sterling are accepted for processing.
Q23: Our firm is planning to send in a large volume of hard cards from our overseas location. Are there any special instruction or notification required prior to sending?
A23: At least 2 weeks prior to mailing a large volume of fingerprint cards, contact FINRA at [email protected] to alert us of the expected number of fingerprint cards and anticipated timing. FINRA defines a large volume as more than 500 cards that are mailed all at once or over several days.
Q28: How long do I have to submit fingerprints after the filing is submitted?
A28: Fingerprints must be received within 30 days after a Form U4 is filed in CRD.
