In compliance with directives from the Ministry of Interior, Pakistani passport offices in Karachi and Lahore have begun round-the-clock operations.á
As per a notification issued by the ministry, the regional passport office in Garden Town, Lahore, will remain open to the public 24/7, while in Karachi, the
regional passport office at Awami Markaz will be operational 24 hours a day.
Services will be provided to the public in three shifts at these regional offices. Interior MinisteráMohsin Naqviáon Sunday announced via a social media post on X that this initiative would make access to passport office facilities easier and more convenient for citizens at any time. The move is expected to significantly alleviate the burden on existing passport offices and reduce waiting times for applicants. According to sources, over 800,000 passports are currently pending printing, but this backlog is expected to be cleared soon with the purchase of new machinery and lamination paper. The Passport and Immigration authorities are currently printing 20-25,000 passports while receiving 40-45,000 applications daily.
