Passport Application Procedure in Islamabad

Passport Application Procedure in Islamabad 

If you have all of your paperwork in one place, the passport application process in Islamabad is simple and quick. Show up at the passport office after that, and you’ll be escorted through the following steps:

Pay the passport fee at the National Bank Counter and get the receipt as confirmation of payment. After that, go to the Customer Service Counter and get a Pakistani passport application form. Before continuing on to the next stage, you must first complete the form.

• An officer will then take a photo of you and assign you a unique token number.

• At the counter, they will request you to present your digital profile, which includes your fingerprints.

•They will then prompt you to submit your bio-data into the system, which will include your full name, date of birth, address, profession, and other information. If you’re renewing your passport, the authorities would already have your information and will give you a form to double-check it.

Note: It is strongly advised that you double-check the spellings of your name, address, and other information entered the system.

If there are any inaccuracies, have them addressed by the officer to avoid any problems while applying for a visa later. Individuals filing for immigration and student visas should double-check spellings on official documents including mark sheets, CNICs, and other official documents.

• Step 5: Your information will now be compared to existing entries in the Exit Control List (ECL) and Black List (BL).

• Step 6: If you passed step 5, the Regional Passport Office’s Assistant Director will contact you for a final interview. After that, the director will provide you with a receipt with your passport tracking number and delivery date.

Passport Collection Procedure

You must pick up your passport from the same location where you submitted your application.

• Show up at the Passport Collecting Counter on the stated date with the receipt you got from the assistant director for passport collection.

•You can also have your passport sent to your home, however, there will be an additional fee for this service.
