Foreign nationals are required to obtain a visa for entry into Pakistan, along with a passport that must remain valid for at least six months beyond their intended stay in the country.
Pakistan has recently introduced an online visa system, providing convenience for travellers seeking tourist, student, family, pilgrimage, and various other visa types. If you’re planning a tourist visit to Pakistan, you have three convenient options to apply for a Pakistan tourist visa:
You can apply for an on-arrival visa (e-Visa) if your country is on the list of eligible countries for Pakistan e-Visas. For your convenience, we’ve provided a list of these countries below. Please ensure your country is on this list to apply for an on-arrival visa. We highly recommend planning your Pakistan visit and initiating the visa application process as early as possible. The latest recommended time for an on-arrival visa application is 48-72 hours before your planned travel to receive your Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA).
Passport, Photograph, Invitation Letter (for individual tourists) or Invitation Letter from a Tour Operator (for group tourists).
The Tourist Visa on Arrival is typically valid for 30 days. Additionally, nationals from Malaysia, Turkey, and the UAE may be granted a 30-day, multiple-entry visa upon arrival.
48-72 hours during working hours.
Choose the appropriate visa type and understand the eligibility and document requirements.
Ensure you have a complete set of supporting documents, the required photograph, and a valid credit or debit card for online payment.
Follow these steps when you’re ready to apply:
