The federal government of Pakistan recently announced a new fee structure for passports, with individuals to pay up to Rs. 356,000 for losing the travel book.
For a 5-year, 36-page e-passport, the normal fee is set at Rs. 3,000, and the urgent fee is Rs. 15,000.
For a 75-page e-passport, the 10-year validity has a normal fee of Rs. 15,500 and an urgent fee of Rs. 27,000.
For MRPs, a 36-page passport with a 5-year validity costs Rs. 4,500 for normal processing, Rs. 7,500 for urgent, and Rs. 13,500 for fast-track services. A 72-page, 10-year MRP will have a normal fee of Rs. 6,700, an urgent fee of Rs. 11,200, and a fast-track fee of Rs. 16,200.
For a 100-page MRP valid for 5 years, the normal fee is Rs. 9,000, the urgent fee is Rs. 18,000, and the fast-track fee is Rs. 23,000. A 10-year, 100-page MRP costs Rs. 13,500 for normal processing, Rs. 17,000 for urgent, and Rs. 32,000 for fast-track.
Separate fees apply for lost passports. For the first loss, the fee is Rs. 54,000, and for a third loss, it rises to Rs. 356,000.
Why do they even charge for loss of the passport in the first place? The author should’ve explained this in the article.
Janab urgent and Normal ki timing confirm kre How many month required mostly person disturb it bad situation.Here urgent 7500 but Now Three month complete no any found passport.
It’s so shocking to learn, that our most hypocritic government has imposed such drastic fees even for common people who travel.abroad. This is just mockery of democracy. Hopeso our invisibles defacto powers and Supreme Court will interve to stop this inhumanly act of extortion and oppressive collection of illegal dues.
I have purchased Suzuki every, and have a harsh loud noise during drive . There’s is also a issue of a/c when speed of vehicle going above 100 km/h , a/ c switches off .
Aoa,
I’m going to defend in case of lost passport the penality should be even more and if the person continues should be banned for time years.
The passport is the identity and should be treated with respect and care. Additionally the government should provide process time and if delayed by Nadra there should be reversal of fee from government side.
Thanks
