This is an independent guide. BISP 8171 Web Portal is the property of its owner — we only link to the official page and never collect your credentials.
The official Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) 8171 web portal lets citizens check their welfare/eligibility status online using their CNIC. It is an eligibility check, not a password login.
Use ONLY https://8171.bisp.gov.pk (the .gov.pk domain) or SMS 8171 free. This is the single most impersonated Pakistani welfare service: countless fake '8171 / Ehsaas / BISP' websites, apps and agents ask for money, bank/ATM PINs or OTPs to 'register' or 'release' payments. BISP NEVER charges a fee and NEVER asks for your OTP, PIN or password. Genuine payments are collected only via official BISP campsites/authorised banks. This page is an independent guide and is NOT the official BISP or Government of Pakistan website.

How to check BISP 8171 Web Portal online
Open the official portal at https://8171.bisp.gov.pk/.
Enter your full 13-digit CNIC number without dashes or spaces.
Type the CAPTCHA/verification code shown in the image.
Submit to see your eligibility status and next steps; alternatively SMS your CNIC to 8171 free of charge.
What you need
No password is required. The 8171 portal is a CNIC-based eligibility lookup, so there is nothing to reset. If your status is unclear, visit a BISP Tehsil Office or registration desk with your original CNIC.
Good to know: Registration/eligibility is assessed via BISP survey (NSER) at BISP offices, not through an online account; the portal only shows the result.
