Nationwide Online Passport Fee App Officially Launched by the Government
Following its initial release in Pakistan’s major cities, the online passport fee app was made available throughout the entire country by Directorate General Immigration and Passports (DGIP), acting on instructions from the Interior Ministry.
In this regard, the Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah inaugurated the app Passport Fee Asaan today and disclosed that the app has been activated for public usage, according to a tweet from the Head of the Prime Minister’s (PM) Strategic Reforms, Salman Sufi.
He stated that the service is one of many amenities that will be introduced in the coming months and that it will allow millions of citizens to pay their taxes without having to wait in line at banks.
It should be noted that the app is accessible through both the Apple Store and the Play Store. Additionally, through PayMaster on the DGIP website, citizens can pay their passport fees.
The online payment option was formerly offered for Islamabad, Rawalpindi, and Lahore, and Karachi was supposed to get it this month. Prior to its intended introduction in the financial capital, the Ministry has activated it across the entire nation.
After successfully paying the price for the online process, citizens will receive notifications via email and a short messaging service (SMS), which they must present as proof at the passport office.
It is crucial to remember that the payment is neither refundable nor transferable after the passport issuance process has started.
