The Parwaaz Card Portal 2026 is the official digital platform designed by the Punjab Skills Development Fund (PSDF) to facilitate youth seeking overseas employment. This portal serves as a “one-stop shop” where applicants can register, apply for interest-free loans to cover pre-departure costs, and connect with verified international job opportunities.
By moving the entire process online, the Government of Punjab has ensured that the journey from being a job seeker to a migrant worker is transparent, secure, and free from the influence of illegal agents.
Core Services of the Parwaaz Portal
The portal is designed to cater to three specific groups, each with a dedicated section to streamline their respective tasks.
Job Seekers: For individuals looking for work abroad. This section allows users to browse verified job demands from licensed Overseas Employment Promoters (OEPs). Job Holders: For those who already have a confirmed job offer. This path allows them to apply for interest-free loans of up to Rs. 1,000,000 (10 Lakh) to cover visa, medical, and ticket costs. OEP Partners: A specialized portal for licensed recruitment agencies to list their job demands and connect with skilled Punjab residents.
Step-by-Step Guide to Register and Login
The registration process for 2026 is linked directly to your CNIC and mobile number to ensure data security.
Visit the official website at parwaaz.psdf.org.pk. Click on the “Register” or “Start Loan Application” button. Enter your 13-digit CNIC and a Mobile Number registered in your name. Verify your identity using the OTP (One-Time Password) sent to your phone. Create a secure password to use for future logins. Once registered, use the Applicant Login page to enter your credentials and access your personal dashboard.
How to Apply Online for the Parwaaz Card 2026
After logging in, completing your application accurately is the most important step for approval.
Complete Your Profile: Fill in your personal details, educational background, and specific skills (e.g., Electrician, Nurse, Driver). Select Category: Choose the appropriate track. If you have an offer, select “Job Holder”; if you are searching, select “Job Seeker.” Upload Required Documents: Provide clear scans of your CNIC, Punjab Domicile, and (if applying for a loan) your verified Job Offer Letter. Mandatory Training: Complete the short online Soft Skills training module available on the portal, which is a prerequisite for final approval. Submit and Track: After final submission, you will receive a tracking ID. You can monitor your status (Under Review, Approved, or Disbursed) directly on your dashboard.
Important Checklist for Applicants
Before you submit your application in 2026, ensure you meet the final checklist to avoid automatic rejection by the system.
Age Requirement: You must be at least 18 years old (maximum age varies by job trade, usually up to 45). Residency: Only permanent residents of Punjab province are eligible for this specific card. Phone Registration: The mobile number used must be registered on the same CNIC used for the application. Document Quality: Ensure that your scans are not blurred; the system uses automated OCR (Optical Character Recognition) to verify data against NADRA.
Why You Should Only Use the Official Portal
The Government of Punjab has issued a strict warning for 2026 regarding third-party involvement.
The official domain is parwaaz.psdf.org.pk. Do not enter your data on any website ending in .com or .org without the .gov.pk or psdf.org.pk extension. The entire registration and application process is 100% Free. Using the portal protects you from human trafficking and ensures that your job offer is verified by the Bureau of Emigration & Overseas Employment (BEOE).
