Pakistan Visa guide for citizens of Afghanistan

Citizens from Afghanistan need a visa to enter Pakistan. However, the developments in Afghanistan in recent years make it difficult for many Afghans to get a visa for Pakistan and other countries.

Do Afghan passport holders require a visa for Pakistan?

Yes.

To enter Pakistan as an Afghan passport holder, whether for business, family visits, tourism, or another purpose, you need a visa before you depart. Without one, you won't be allowed into the country.

Can Afghans currently get a visa for Pakistan?

Yes, technically, it should be possible for Afghans to get a visa for Pakistan.

However, in reality, the current political situation has proven it difficult for many Afghans to secure a visa to enter Pakistan.

The Pakistani Embassy in Kabul is open for consular services, but many applicants report that the requirements, processing time, and costs vary heavily depending on the economical and political events unfolding over time.

What are the current relations between Pakistan and Afghanistan?

The story of Afghanistan-Pakistan relations is a long and complex one. They are two countries with many things in common: religion (Islam), several ethnic groups (Pashtuns and Baloch), and thousands of miles of border.

However, they also share a border region that has never truly come under the control of any government and, therefore, is always under the threat of political upheaval and terrorist attacks.

How to get a visa for Pakistan from Afghanistan

While we currently don't offer assistance with the application, here are some tips to get a Pakistan Visa from Afghanistan:

  • Visit the official Pakistan Visa portal - The Pakistan government has recently implemented an online visa system called the Pakistan eVisa. This website will give you all Pakistan eVisa requirements and application steps.

  • Be careful with unofficial travel and visa agencies: Do not give out personal details or payments to individuals, agencies, and other companies that are not affiliated with the Pakistan government.

  • Be prepared for a slow process: If you want to leave Afghanistan urgently, the Pakistan Visa may not be your best bet. The visa process for Afghans is reported to be very slow and unpredictable currently. Reach out to the embassy or consulate before applying to check current processing times and costs.

Who can I contact for more information about Pakistan visas?
