Navigating passport fee schedules can be confusing due to varying booklet sizes, validity tiers, priority levels, and digital surcharge structures. Our interactive Pakistan Passport Fee Calculator above eliminates guesswork by instantly calculating your exact fee before you generate a Payment Slip Identification (PSID) on the official government portal.
Critical Operational Tip: Always calculate and verify your fee online before visiting any Regional Passport Office (RPO), Executive Passport Office (EPO), or Passport Processing Counter (PPC). As of 2026, passport offices operate on a digital, cashless token verification model—you must arrive with a pre-paid, verified PSID receipt or SMS confirmation.
Below are the official, verified government fee schedules enforced by the Directorate General of Immigration & Passports (DGI&P) and the National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) for Ordinary Machine Readable Passports (MRPs) across all processing priorities.

Gone are the days of standing in multi-hour physical queues at National Bank of Pakistan (NBP) treasury branches. Under the Ministry of Interior’s digital transformation initiative, all passport fee payments must be processed digitally via the Passport Fee Asaan mobile app or official web portal (https://dgip.gov.pk/eServices/).

Upon successful transaction, you will receive an official payment acknowledgment SMS from 1-Link and DGI&P confirming your status as "Paid".
Under strict Directorate General of Immigration & Passports policy, all online fee payments are 100% non-refundable and non-transferable. If you mistype your CNIC number by even one digit during PSID generation and complete the payment, that money cannot be transferred to your actual CNIC or refunded to your bank account. You will be forced to generate a new PSID and pay the full fee a second time. Always triple-check the 13-digit identity number before clicking submit.
As Pakistan shifts toward a fully modernized, cashless digital travel infrastructure, citizens now have the choice between traditional Ordinary Machine Readable Passports (MRPs) and cutting-edge Biometric e-Passports. While both are green-covered booklets legally issued by the Government of Pakistan, their internal engineering differs significantly.
| Feature / Specification | Machine Readable Passport (MRP) | Biometric e-Passport |
|---|---|---|
| Data Page Material | Standard Laminated Security Paper | High-Durability Polycarbonate Plastic |
| Contactless Microchip | None | Embedded RFID/NFC Chip & Antenna |
| Biometric Data Storage | Printed Text & 2D Barcode Only | Encrypted Facial Photo, Fingerprints & Iris Data |
| International e-Gates | Manual Officer Verification Required | Instant Automated e-Gate Access Worldwide |
| Security Layer Count | Standard Optical Features | 29+ Advanced Security Layers (MLI, Laser Engraving) |
| Booklet Options | 36, 72, or 100 Pages | 36 or 72 Pages Only |
| 36-Page Normal Fee (5 Yrs) | Rs. 4,500/- | Rs. 9,000/- |
| Fast Track Availability | Available across 47 Cities | Not Available (Normal & Urgent Only) |
The e-Passport data page is manufactured from multi-layered polycarbonate fused together under high heat and pressure, making mechanical layer separation or forgery physically impossible. Personal data is engraved directly into the inner carbon layers using specialized industrial laser technology rather than standard ink printing.
Furthermore, the embedded microchip stores cryptographically signed biometric credentials that comply with strict International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) Doc 9303 protocols. When passing through automated immigration e-Gates at international hubs (such as Dubai, London Heathrow, or Singapore Changi), scanners wirelessly read the microchip and verify your facial geometry in seconds—completely bypassing physical immigration counter queues.
Losing a valid Pakistani passport triggers strict administrative scrutiny and heavy financial penalties designed to prevent illegal document trafficking and careless handling. If your passport is lost, stolen, or severely damaged, standard renewal fees do not apply.
When generating your PSID via Passport Fee Asaan for a replacement booklet, you must select the appropriate loss category under application type. The system automatically applies fixed statutory multipliers:
Before visiting the Regional Passport Office for a lost passport replacement, you must lodge an official First Information Report (FIR) or Daily Diary (Roznamcha) report at the local police station having jurisdiction over the area where the loss occurred. The computerized police report must explicitly state the lost passport number, your CNIC, and the circumstances of the loss. Bring the original police report along with multiple photocopies to the RPO token counter.
A passport is officially classified as damaged if:
Note: Damaged passports generally incur standard replacement fees rather than lost multipliers, provided you physically surrender the entire damaged booklet at the RPO during application processing.
Below are authoritative answers to the most common technical, billing, and operational questions asked by Pakistani citizens regarding passport fee calculations and processing.
Yes, absolutely. In fact, physical branch payment queues have been entirely phased out in favor of digital payments. Once you generate your 17-digit PSID via the Passport Fee Asaan app or web portal, you can pay instantly 24/7 using any Pakistani banking app (via 1BILL invoice), JazzCash, Easypaisa, or ATM network. You do not need to visit a physical bank branch.
Because government policy strictly mandates that online passport fee payments are non-refundable and non-transferable, a paid PSID linked to an incorrect CNIC number cannot be edited, reassigned, or refunded. You must generate a brand new PSID under the correct 13-digit CNIC and pay the full fee again. Take extreme care to double-check all digits prior to payment execution.
Occasional network delays between inter-bank settlement systems (1-Link) and the DGI&P central database can cause synchronization lag. If you recently executed the payment, wait 15 to 30 minutes and verify that your status displays as "Paid" on the Passport Fee Asaan app under the "Check Status" tab. Always capture a screenshot of your payment confirmation SMS or PDF receipt before arriving at the token counter.
No. Once a PSID is successfully paid into the government treasury account, the funds are permanently appropriated for document processing. Fees are strictly non-refundable regardless of whether you decide to cancel your application, fail to visit the passport office, or face security rejection during verification interviews.
For minor children, generate the PSID using the 13-digit Child Registration Certificate (CRC / B-Form) number or Family Registration Certificate (FRC) identity number issued by NADRA. Ensure the exact 13-digit sequence corresponding to the child's name is entered into the fee portal.
Once a PSID is generated and paid for a specific priority tier (e.g., Normal 21 days), it cannot be partially upgraded by paying a difference amount at the counter. If you urgently require faster processing before biometric data capture at the RPO, you will need to generate and pay a completely new PSID for the higher priority tier.
Standard processing fees cover collection from your designated Regional Passport Office. However, DGI&P offers an optional, secure Home Delivery Service via official courier partners (such as TCS or Pakistan Post) for an nominal additional courier surcharge payable directly at the RPO dispatch desk during final application sign-off. Overseas applicants renewing via the e-Services portal automatically pay integrated international courier dispatch fees during online checkout.
RPO (Regional Passport Office): Standard government processing centers operating across major cities and districts without extra administrative surcharges.
EPO (Executive Passport Office): Premium, air-conditioned corporate-style processing centers offering streamlined queues and rapid facilitation for an additional NADRA Executive Service Fee charged on top of your PSID.
PPC (Passport Processing Counter): Dedicated counters hosted inside designated NADRA registration centers in smaller tehsils and remote districts to facilitate rural citizens without requiring travel to major RPOs. Additional NADRA handling charges apply.
