Government and utility guides affect people’s money and documents, so we follow strict rules.
1. Official sources first
Every fee, document requirement, timeline and portal link must come from the official source of the department responsible, for example:
– NADRA — nadra.gov.pk, id.nadra.gov.pk (Pak ID)
– Passports — dgip.gov.pk
– Electricity bills — bill.pitc.com.pk and each DISCO’s own site; ke.com.pk for K-Electric
– Gas — sngpl.com.pk, ssgc.com.pk
– Traffic & vehicles — provincial Safe City / traffic police / Excise & Taxation websites
– Driving licence (Punjab) — dlims.punjab.gov.pk / Dastak
– BISP — bisp.gov.pk, 8171.bisp.gov.pk
– Tax — fbr.gov.pk; SIM information — pta.gov.pk
News reports and other websites can alert us to a change, but we publish a fee only after we see it on the official source. If the official source is unavailable or contradicts itself, we say so clearly in the article.
2. Every guide shows
- The official source link next to fee tables
- The date we last checked the information (“Last checked against official source: …”)
- The author’s name
3. Screenshots and images
We use only our own graphics or our own captures of official pages, with the source credited and personal details hidden. We do not use mock-ups of official apps or portals.
4. Updates
- Top guides (fees, renewals, bills) are re-checked at least once a month and immediately when a department announces a change.
- Other guides are re-checked at least every 3 months.
- When facts change, we update the article and the “last checked” date. We do not change the date without checking.
5. Corrections
Readers can report errors at help@asaanguide.com. Verified corrections are made as soon as possible (target: 48 hours), and significant corrections are noted at the end of the article (“Correction, [date]: …”).
6. Use of AI tools
We may use software tools to help with research, drafting or translation. Every guide is reviewed, fact-checked against the official source, and edited by a human before it is published. We do not publish automatically generated pages.
7. Independence
Asaan Guide is independent. Advertisers have no influence over our content. We do not accept payment to publish or change a guide, and we never act as an agent for any department.
8. Safety
We never ask readers for identity or payment details. Guides include a scam warning where fake portals or fake agents are common.
