The Board of Intermediate Education Karachi (BIEK) has officially launched its online document issuance service to facilitate students and the general public.
According to officials, with this new facility, students would no longer be required to visit the BIEK office in person to apply for or obtain their academic documents. Instead, they could conveniently apply through the Board’s official portals: www.biek.edu.pk and portal.biek.edu.pk.
The following credentials and documents could now be obtained online: HSC Pakka Certificate, Verification of HSC Pakka Certificate, Duplicate Marks Sheet, Verification of Marks Sheet, Duplicate Admit Card, Migration Certificate, Provisional Certificate, Duplicate Enrolment, and Duplicate Registration. The prescribed fee could be paid online via Kuick Pay, while documents would be delivered to the student’s provided address through Urgent Mail Service (UMS) of Pakistan Post. Officials said the initiative aimed to promote ease of access, transparency, and efficiency in document issuance. Students and citizens were encouraged to use this facility to save time, avoid unnecessary travel, and experience a more streamlined process.
