Frequently asked questions

Can I apply for a Pakistan eVisa if I have dual citizenship?

Yes, Canadian citizens with dual citizenship can apply for a Pakistan eVisa. However, you must use your Canadian passport for the application and travel to Pakistan.

What if my travel plans change after I receive my eVisa?

The Pakistan eVisa is valid for 3 months from the date of issue. If your travel dates change within this period, you can still use the same eVisa. However, if your new travel dates fall outside this validity period, you'll need to apply for a new eVisa.
