Visa policy of Pakistan

Visitors to Pakistan typically must obtain a visa online or in certain cases from one of the Pakistani diplomatic missions.

Citizens from the following countries who hold ordinary passports do not require a visa for Pakistan for up to 90 days (unless otherwise noted).

Under reciprocal agreements, holders of diplomatic or various types of passports (official and service) of the following countries and territories may enter and remain in Pakistan without a visa for the following period:

D - Diplomatic passports
O - Official passports
S - Service passports

Pakistan signed a visa exemption agreement with Tajikistan which extends the exemption to official passport holders and it is yet to be ratified.

A visa exemption agreement was signed with Belize in September 2024 and it is yet to be ratified.

As of 14 August 2024, the Government of Pakistan has implemented a reform of the visa policy announced in late July 2024. Under this new policy, business and tourist visas are issued online free of charge within 24 hours to citizens of 126 countries. To benefit from the program, eligible travelers can obtain a visa pre-approval, called a Visa Prior to Arrival, via the Ministry of Interior's online platform at least 48 hours before their intended entry to Pakistan. Once approved, they will be issued an electronic authorization (a copy of which must be presented upon arrival) which will allow them to travel to Pakistan and obtain an entry stamp for stays of up to 90 days with multiple entries. Holders of these eVisas can also use eGates to enter the country at nine airports and at Gwadar port. The eVisa is valid for a single entry for 90 days.
