Re: Tourist Visa

what about visit visa of Pakistani citizen for Egypt, Jordan. and i was thinking i have seen few tourism sites regarding Palestine, can Pakistani go for tour to Palestine

can anyone tell :confused:

Re: Tourist Visa

Egypt and Jordan visa's are easy for Pakistani nationals.

Just send an email to consular section asking for tourist visa requirements.

Don't know about Palestine. I heard there was some special procedure in place but that allowed only official / Govt visits.

Re: Tourist Visa

probably the hardest among other countries.

Re: Tourist Visa

There are three steps for visa apply from Pakistan to Japan
**
First, check the current validity of your passport.**

All travelers will need a passport valid for at least 90 days following your departure date from Japan. However, we strongly recommend traveling with 6 months validity on your passport at all times. VisaHQ can assist U.S. citizens with a full range of expedited passport services, including new passport application and passport renewal.

Second, make sure your passport has blank Visa pages.

Most destinations, including Japan, require that you have adequate un-used pages in your passport, allowing for any necessary stamps upon arrival and departure. We recommend that you have at least two free pages in Visas section of your passport before any international travel. U.S. citizens can get extra passport pages added to their passports as fast as within 24 hours.
**
Finally, confirm if transit visa is required for any connections.**

Check with your airline in case you have connecting flights overseas as part of your journey to Japan. It may be the case that countries you pass through en route to your destination may require a separate transit visa. Please refer to visa requirements of the specific country.

Re: Tourist Visa

I think I saw one or two (maybe more) people from Pakistan in Japan , so it's not impossible and there's a way . I think it depends on where you're applying from, I mean your current country of residence, along with other factors of course .

Re: Tourist Visa

I know couple of pathans that own car junkyards in pakistan. they regularly go to Japan for purchasing as if going from Rawalpindi to Lahore.

Re: Tourist Visa

They aren't tourists then. They're business men.

Re: Tourist Visa

Absolutely no problem if you can provide all the documents requested by the embassy.
They were not charging any visa fee until some time ago, hope it is still the same.

Re: Tourist Visa

Have you even received Visa from Japanese embassy in Islamabad ?

Re: Tourist Visa

twice, both times within 5 working days.

Re: Tourist Visa

What was the category? How you prepared documents ? Was it tourist ? How many visa's were already in your passport ? The info will help us a lot. their website says documents required from sponsor in Japan. How to solve it?
