Child Maintenance & Child Support in Pakistan

Child maintenance in Pakistan is a crucial area of family law that ensures the financial protection and well-being of children after separation or divorce. It creates a legal responsibility on the father to contribute towards the child's upbringing, education, healthcare, and essential needs.

What Maintenance Covers

Education Expenses

School fees, tuition, books, uniforms, and extracurricular activities.

02
Medical Expenses

Healthcare costs, medical insurance, and treatment expenses.

03
Food & Clothing

Daily nutritional needs and appropriate clothing for the child.

Accommodation

Contribution towards rent or mortgage of the custodial parent's home.

Transportation

School transport and necessary travel costs.

General Living

All other reasonable expenses for the child's standard of living.

Enforcement Measures
