Claim guide
Eligibility, required documents, and the claim workflow — guidance only, not a claim-submission service.
Claim workflow
1. Check the serial and claim status
Use Check Bonds to confirm the winning serial, denomination, draw, and whether the claim window is still open.
2. Prepare required documents
Gather the original bond and your identity documentation before starting the claim process.
3. Follow the process for your bond type
Bearer bonds (Rs. 100–1,500) and premium/registered bonds (Rs. 25,000, Rs. 40,000) follow different official processes — see the distinction below.
4. Identify a verified submission center
Reach out to your nearest submission center for guidance on where to submit your claim.
5. Submit and retain proof
Submit through the official process and keep proof of submission for your records.
Documents you'll likely need
- Original prize bond
- CNIC copy / identity documentation
- Relevant official claim form for your bond type
Bearer vs. premium/registered bonds: the official process differs by bond type — bearer bonds (Rs. 100–1,500) are generally claimed at a commercial bank branch, while premium/registered bonds (Rs. 25,000, Rs. 40,000) follow a separate process, referenced in official sources as forms PR-1/PR-2. The exact current form links and process distinctions need official verification before this guide can state them definitively — check the official source for your bond type.
Claim window
This page is informational guidance only — not a claim-submission service or legal advice. Confirm every requirement with savings.gov.pk or your National Savings office before acting.
Winning bonds are currently treated as claimable for 6 years from the draw date — this matches the primary source but the exact official calculation method and date interpretation is unverified for production. Check savings.gov.pk for the current rule, especially near the edge of the window.
