Passport & Visa

Passport & Visa

Most travellers need to apply for a visa before entering Pakistan. This can be done online through the Pakistan Online Visa System or at one of Pakistan's diplomatic missions. The tourist eVisa allows a stay of up to 30 days and must be used within 90 days of issuance. Required documents include a passport photo, a copy of the passport, a travel itinerary, and an invitation letter. Visa on arrival is available for citizens of 65 countries, applicable to those travelling as part of an organised tour group or for business. This visa allows a 30-day stay. Nationals of the Maldives, Nepal, Samoa, Tonga, and Trinidad and Tobago enjoy visa-free entry to Pakistan. Indian passport holders, as well as foreigners of Indian origin, face additional regulations and are not issued tourist visas. Instead, they may enter on different visa types, such as for business or religious tourism. Indian citizens, along with those from Bangladesh, Bhutan, Israel, Nigeria, Palestine, Somalia, and Uganda, must register with the police upon arrival. For the latest information, always check with the official Pakistan Online Visa System or your nearest Pakistani diplomatic mission.

There are also a number of local buses which can transport visitors to and from the airport, but the number of routes can be overwhelming and confusing. Unless you know exactly which bus to take to get to your destination, it might be best to stick to taxis.
