Is it easy to apply for a tourist visa in Pakistan?

It's not easy to handle. Although the political relationship between China and Pakistan is very close, Pakistan is very cautious in issuing visas to China. Although it is free for China citizens to apply for a Pakistani visa, it is not easy to apply for a tourist visa. Pakistan's short-term visa in China is mainly a business visa, and it really needs an invitation letter from the other party.

But now there are many online intermediaries who can sign business contracts, and you don't have to prepare your own invitation letter, just spend some money. Generally, a business visa only gives a single entry for 30 days, and can be extended there. If you need to apply for more than one year, you can only find an intermediary there.

Pakistan visa processing flow:

1. The applicant decides the destination and itinerary of Pakistan.

2. Log in to official website, embassies and consulates in China for visa application information and list of required materials.

3. Submit the visa application form to the embassy or consulate and go through the visa application procedures.

4. The applicant must apply for a visa in the corresponding Pakistani embassies and consulates in China.

5. Waiting for review or supplementary materials.

6. Get a visa. After obtaining a visa, you should carefully check whether all the information on the visa is correct, especially whether the start and end time and the number of days of stay of the visa are consistent with the application, and whether the personal information on the visa, such as the spelling of the name, is correct. If you find anything wrong, you should contact Ba embassies and consulates in China in time.

Some qualifications and visa-related requirements for Pakistani visas stipulate that:

1. Citizens with China passports can apply for visas on arrival in Pakistan, but there are restrictions on the purpose of entry. Only those who travel for business activities can apply for visas on arrival, and those who travel for other entry purposes cannot apply for visas on arrival.

2. In addition to the entry purpose, the applicant for visa on arrival in Pakistan must ensure that there is no bad entry and exit record and no blacklist record, and the age of application should be appropriate and required, and must be between 18-60 years old.

3. Applicants who apply for visas on arrival must first apply for approval on arrival in China. Generally, the agency will be contacted, and the applicant only needs to prepare a passport and a scanned ticket in the travel itinerary that meets the requirements. Entrusted agents naturally need to pay a certain service fee, and the charging standards of different agents are different.

4. Upon arrival at the airport, the person who has obtained the landing approval should present the passport that meets the requirements, prepare the relevant landing approval, and go through the visa procedures for round-trip air tickets, travel itinerary and hotel reservation.

5. Pakistani visa on arrival allows you to stay in China for 30 days. Applicants should return to China on time, otherwise they will be fined and detained, leaving a bad record, which will affect future visa processing.

6. In addition to visas on arrival, people who go to Pakistan can also apply for electronic visas, and the required materials are relatively simple. If the visa is not issued through the Pakistan Visa Service Center, the paid fee will still be refunded.

Legal basis:

Article 9 of the Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) on Exit and Entry Administration.

China citizens shall apply for passports or other travel documents when leaving or entering the country. China citizens who want to go to other countries or regions also need to obtain visas or other entry permits. However, unless the China government has signed visa exemption agreements with other governments or the Ministry of Public Security and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs provide otherwise. China citizens who leave or enter the country as seafarers and work on foreign ships shall apply for a seaman's certificate according to law.
