Verified practical details
You'll need to apply for a visa at a consulate or embassy before travelling. Here are the practical details we've verified:
Authorisation system
e-Visa (Pakistan Online Visa System)
Since 1 January 2026, the former free "Visa Prior to Arrival" (VPA) exemption for 126 countries was suspended: a paid e-Visa applied for online at visa.nadra.gov.pk is now required, with an indicative processing time of 7-10 business days. It's the only official portal: be wary of third-party sites that overcharge.
Apply on the official site →Fee
The fee is charged "on a reciprocal basis" and varies a lot by nationality (e.g.: free for China or Malaysia, US$60 for the US, UK, Canada or Australia, US$50 for Germany, per DGIP's table). The published official table dates from 2023, before the January 2026 reform, so check the official fee calculator at visa.nadra.gov.pk/evisaFee/ before applying. On top of the base fee, a 10% "PCW&E" surcharge, a 10% "FIGOB" surcharge, an $8 NADRA service charge and a 2.2% bank fee apply.
Processing time
Indicative, 7-10 business days (Pakistan Online Visa System).
Required documents
- Passport valid for the whole stay, the online form at visa.nadra.gov.pk, and a digital passport-style photo.
- For the "visit" visa to family or friends (not the standard tourist e-visa): a signed invitation letter from the host in Pakistan, with a copy of their ID, address and phone number: don't confuse the two categories when applying.
Health insurance
Not mandatory for this destination.
When travel insurance is mandatory → Travel insurance policies ↓Transit rules
Pakistan's transit visa only allows you to pass through the country, not to stay in it. For Indian nationals travelling to India by air or sea through Pakistan, it is issued for up to two entries with a 72-hour stay in the city or port of entry.

Travel insurance for Pakistan
It isn't listed as mandatory for this entry, but without insurance, medical care during the trip can get expensive.
