It is a very good news.
what is good in it? Pakistan also give national identity cards to those who is not national… Pakistan it has it self a wonderful beauty but our politicians and departments are fucking bastards… ask these 24 countries that are any one of them willing to give just 15 days visit/tourist visa for any local middle class Pakistani… they will never give any visa to local Pakistani easily… i have too much to say but who cares who will notice…
PAKISTAN ZINDABAD PAINDABAD LONG LIVE PAKISTAN LONG LIVE PAK FOUJ….
Very good step taken.unfotunatly only 1 Islamic country in list
That is fortunately actually!!!
Yahan pe bhi relegion ko dal dia bech men? grow up man.
Highly appreciated. Its high time to encourage and promote tourism in Pakistan. The economy of Pakistan has badly suffered due to war on terror and Afghan War for the last three decades. The Pakistani government has to realize the need of the day and take some positive steps like this one to promote tourism and Social Services sector in the country. Recently and international magazine has already declared Pakistan one of the safe destinations for tourists for the year 2018.These steps will further encourage tourism which will obviously help the country to overcome the trade deficit.
Yani USA ab apne agents VISA on Arrival pe bhej sakta hay…
woh waisy bhi bhej sakty hain.
Bhai g hum kab sudhren gay…. !!!! pata nai. Tourism se economy ko faida hoga. Aur har tourist agent ya spy nai hota lese ap aur me terrorist nai hain common awam hain.
It is VERY OLD policy not new , probably FIA developed an APP for it so the writer thought visa on arrival (VOA) through designated tour operator is new announcement for tourist :).
With this VOA facility tourists cannot travel independently in Pakistan . They MUST book full tour with a tour operator who submits all reports to authorities upon completion of the tour.
Agree with you Kamal. I am from Indonesia already knew that info for some years ago. ?
A nice effort to promote home tourism
Mein nay abi is +92-51-111-345-786 number py call kia woh keh rahy hai ki unko is khabar ka baray mein kuch nai pta.
can i get a visa on arrival and then go on my own whenever I want and how I want? i like travelling solo without any official touristic groups.
sorry not alone but if you in group still every where in pak is not allow you visit you have to take NOC from foreign office and unfortunately which is mostly nicer places that coming in that NOC matter.
You may travel with VOA if you belong to above mentioned countries ,you should better contact immigration office.Thanks.
is it possible to get a visa on arrival and then travel alone? i love solo travels
hahhaha of cousre they will come only for suicide coz as much as i knew out side from this country people thinking pak is buffer zone….
that designated tour operators will gain more benefits from this policy..How about independent traveller?
What is the policy for Indians to come to Pakistan there are many Indians who would love to visit the beautiful scenic places meet the honest hospitality that is world renowned.
Great Job Government, best decision ever.
I’m Italian, so if I will arrive by train from Iran they wouldn’t send me back?
