Rishta in Islamabad and Rawalpindi

Two cities on the profile

The city on a profile is the one the family enters, so a family in Rawalpindi and a family in Islamabad have different cities. When your daily list is ranked, a profile in exactly the same city as yours gets extra weight. A profile in the other twin city does not get that extra weight, but it is not held back either: it is treated like any other profile that fits your preferences.

For families living in Pakistan the profile also asks for the province, where Islamabad and Punjab are separate options, and for the city where the wider family lives.

Education and career

If education and work are high on your list, the profile gives you something concrete to go on. Each profile states the level of education, the field of study, employment status and, for those working, profession and an income range.

• Set a minimum education, from Matric up to a PhD or a doctor or engineer degree.
• Set a minimum income range.
• Mark education or income as most important, so profiles that meet your minimum — and better-educated profiles in particular — count for more when your list is ranked.

Families with someone abroad

If the boy or girl lives abroad while the family is in the twin cities, or the other way round, the profile shows both: country of residence, country of birth, nationality (Pakistani, two countries, or other), the city where they live now and the home town. In your preferences you can list the countries you would accept a rishta from, and mark country as most important.

How the papers are checked

Choose Pakistan as your country and the ID document is your CNIC; fees are in Pakistani rupees. Our staff check the CNIC, match the photos against it and confirm the date of birth — anyone under 18 is refused. If something is unclear the profile comes back with a note on what to fix, and you resubmit without starting over or paying again.

From interest to meeting

Send interest with a short note if you like. If the other family accepts, a private chat opens; families may read along, and Block and Report are in every chat. When you are ready, either side can ask to share phone numbers, and the other family allows or declines.
