Mustafa Jamal Qazi leads the Immigration and Passports department and praised the achievement. He thanked Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi and the Interior Secretary for their help. Pakistan added new security features to its passports that meet world aviation standards. The e-passports contain special computer chips that work without contact. These improvements made other countries trust Pakistani passports more.
Airport systems will soon use electronic gates for faster processing of Pakistani travelers. The passport office cleared all delayed applications across the country. Pakistani citizens living abroad can apply for passports through internet services. A mobile app called Passport Fee Asaan lets people pay fees quickly. Officials plan to launch another app that allows home passport applications.
