🔥 How to Apply for a New Sui Gas Connection

How to apply for a new Sui gas connection in Pakistan — SNGPL and SSGC — required documents, demand notice, fee and installation steps.

A new Sui gas connection is provided by SNGPL (Sui Northern — Punjab, KP, Islamabad) or SSGC (Sui Southern — Sindh, Balochistan), depending on your area. You apply with proof of ownership and your CNIC; if a gas main already runs along your street, the company issues a Demand Notice and installs the meter after payment.

Note that new domestic connections are sometimes restricted due to gas shortages, so check current availability with the company. This guide covers the general process.

Step-by-step

  1. Check which company serves you

    SNGPL covers Punjab, KP and Islamabad; SSGC covers Sindh and Balochistan. Use the one for your area.

  2. Confirm a gas main is available

    A connection is possible only if a distribution main already runs near your premises. Confirm availability with the company (new connections may be restricted during shortages).

  3. Gather the documents

    Prepare your CNIC, proof of ownership (or a no-objection/occupancy document), a recent photograph and a nearby existing consumer number.

  4. Submit the application form

    Get and submit the new-connection application form at the company's regional office or online where available, with the documents.

  5. Survey and Demand Notice

    The company surveys the site and, if feasible, issues a Demand Notice with the charges (security deposit, connection and meter fee).

  6. Pay the Demand Notice

    Pay the Demand Notice at the designated bank within its validity.

  7. Meter installation

    After payment, the company lays the service line and installs the meter, activating your gas supply.

🔥 SNGPL (Sui Northern — Punjab, KP, Islamabad)

SNGPL supplies Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Islamabad. Check availability and apply via sngpl.com.pk or your regional SNGPL office. Submit the new-connection form with your CNIC, ownership proof and a nearby consumer number. If a distribution main is available, SNGPL surveys the site, issues a Demand Notice, and installs the meter after you pay. Note that new domestic connections may be paused during gas shortages.

🔥 SSGC (Sui Southern — Sindh & Balochistan)

SSGC covers Sindh and Balochistan. Apply at an SSGC Customer Services Centre or via ssgc.com.pk with the same documents. The flow is identical — application → survey → Demand Notice → payment → meter installation — and availability depends on an existing gas main in your street.
