The Directorate General of Immigration and Passport (DGI&P) has made the e-passport service available nationwide after launching it in Islamabad.
The e-passport service was introduced nationally after being tested in Islamabad in June. Furthermore, the government intends to establish smart gates at critical international airports, including Karachi, Lahore, and Islamabad.
Passengers bearing electronic passports can expedite the immigration process with the help of these intelligent gates.
In addition, the DGI&P has disclosed the price of e-passports with varying validity periods. The cost of a 36-page, five-year e-passport is Rs. 9,000. A similar-duration urgent electronic passport will set you back Rs. 15, 000.
Similarly, expedited processing costs Rs. 22,500 for an e-passport, while conventional ten-year passports can be obtained for Rs. 13,500. Furthermore, under normal conditions, 72-page e-passports with periods of five and ten years cost Rs. 15,000 and Rs. 24,750, respectively.
An expedited 72-page e-passport valid for five years will set you back Rs. 27,000, while one good for ten years will set you back Rs. 40,500.
Some of the most notable characteristics of an e-passport are as follows:
- Chip-based data storage with laser etching.
- Many security features, such as UV and IR.
- The immigration facility is called e-Gate.
- ICAO-compliant specifications.
- Airport personalized data matching in real-time.
Officials claim that every passport office in the nation offers the e-passport option. The government intends to open the facility in Pakistani embassies across the globe, including those in America and Europe, in the following phase.
