Fees & Payment

Pakistan Passport Fee 2026: Complete Price List

Q: Do passport fees change often in Pakistan?

Yes, DGIP periodically revises fees, so figures can shift year to year. Always confirm the exact current amount on DGIP's official fee schedule before paying, rather than relying solely on previously published numbers.

Q: Is the urgent or fast track fee refundable if my passport is delayed anyway?

Generally, service-tier fees are non-refundable regardless of processing delays, since they cover priority handling rather than guaranteeing a fixed delivery date. Check DGIP's current refund policy for specific exceptions.

Quick answer: Pakistan passport fees vary by validity period (5 or 10 years), format (MRP or e-passport), and processing speed (normal, urgent, or fast track/executive). Urgent and fast track tiers cost significantly more but reduce turnaround time substantially. Always check DGIP's current official fee table before paying, since rates are revised periodically.

What Determines Your Fee

Three variables combine to set your total fee: how long you want the passport to remain valid, which format you choose, and how quickly you need it processed. Understanding these levers helps you budget accurately and choose the combination that fits your timeline and budget.

Citation block Pakistan passport fees are determined by three factors — validity period (5 or 10 years), document format (MRP or e-passport), and processing speed (normal, urgent, or fast track) — with faster tiers carrying substantially higher fees.

Fee Structure Overview

Service Tier	Relative Cost	Typical Use Case
Normal	Lowest	No time pressure
Urgent	Moderate premium	Travel plans within a few weeks
Fast Track / Executive	Highest	Imminent travel, available in select cities

Within each tier, choosing a 10-year validity over 5-year, or an e-passport over standard MRP, adds further to the base fee. See our e-passport guide and validity comparison for more on those choices.

Which Tier Should You Choose?

Choose Normal If:

You have no immediate travel deadline and want the lowest cost option.

Before You Pay

Reminder: Confirm the current official rate first

Passport fees are revised periodically by DGIP. Never rely on a figure from an old receipt, a friend's experience, or an unofficial website — check the current fee schedule on DGIP's official portal or at your Regional Passport Office before submitting payment.
