Getting a Pakistani Visa in Toronto

So my Pakistani passport expired, and I left it in the UK anyway, and I now need to get a visa in my UK passport to visit Pakistan.

How?

Re: Getting a Pakistani Visa in Toronto

Go the Pakistani embassy and apply for a visa. :rolleyes:

And if you can prove your Pakistani origin, apply for a POC right away.

Here is their website: http://www.pakmission.ca

Pay a visit to Consulate General of Pakistan?

Consulate General of Pakistan:
240 Duncan Mill Rd,
North York, ON M3B 1Z4
Tel. : 416-250-6654

Or how about you get an ID card? I heard some ID cards have been out for Pakistani citizens that can be used to travel without having to worry about obtaining a visa for Pakistan.

Click here to download the application form for a POC (Pakistan Origin Card).

You will find all the information about POC you need if you click here.

It takes them between 2 and 3 months to issue the card. It costs you US$ 100 or the equivalent in your local currency and will be valid for 7 years.

Shame on you for leaving UK :hehe: :stuck_out_tongue:

Re: Getting a Pakistani Visa in Toronto

No Dont apply for POC.

Apply fro NICOP, as a British Citizen you dont need to have POC, instead you should have NICOP and you can enter Pakistan on NICOP without Pakistan passport (I did the same). YOu can stay in Pakistan for indefinate period of time if u enter Pakistan with British Passport & showing NICOP. (on the back of NICOP its clearly written that you can enter Pakistan on any passport without visa).

Re: Getting a Pakistani Visa in Toronto

If you dont have NICOP, then I'd advise going to UK first & having your pakistani passport renewed (apply for NICOP) and then going to Pakistan.

NICOP costs US$ 15 (GBP 10) for 10 years.

POC costs US$100 for 1 year.

POC is basically for those people who cannot have dual citizenships, as a Brit you can have multi-citizenships, so POC is not for you.

ask ur relative in UK ( if there's any ) to get the pakistani passport back to u ..

Re: Getting a Pakistani Visa in Toronto

It’s no use, because it’s expired.
