Pakistan should provide visa free entry to

all Muslim countries nationals

Purpose of this initiative.
As Pakistan is promoting its tourism and offering visa on arrival for almost 50 countries for
tourism and eVisa for almost 156 countries which should be processed in 24 to 72 hours but
still our tourism industry growth is very low. So as business advisor I Fawad Afzal along with
my team members Hannan-Jari-Ullah, and Muhammad Kamran are suggesting to provide visa
free entry to all Islamic countries nationals.
To support are suggestion we are about to provide some major facts which may help Pakistan
to have more tourists as well as economic growth.

Let us have a brief overview of the facts:

 Opening visa free entry will help tourists and also the investors from other Islamic
countries to enter Pakistan without visa requirement.
 In the current state of Pakistan, we are relying on IMF loans and also loans from
china and other Islamic countries this will give them a chance to invest in Pakistan
and help us to build a better Pakistan.
 We can also see it as a tourist encouragement for all the Islamic countries to come
and visit Pakistan explore it beauty, can help the tourist industry.
 It will also help other Islamic countries to look it like a piece gesture with Pakistan to
overcome our differences.
 It will also help the Professionals to enter Pakistan and explore job opportunities.
 In a past few year Pakistan has been accused as terrorist funding country, this
action will also help Pakistan overcome this title when the people from the other
Islamic countries will come and finds that there is nothing like this in Pakistan and
it’s a false accusation.

Now passing on to Hannan-Jari-Ullah to further continue the facts

Thank you Mr. Fawad, as my friend Mr. Fawad was describing I also have some facts that I come
across while reviewing the foreign policy of Pakistan and other Islamic countries and what if Pakistan
allows them to enter visa free

 The bulk of the Islamic countries, and indeed population, have very little travel
freedom, such initiative of Pakistan’s will encourage most of our Muslims brothers
to visit Pakistan.
 This will help our tourist industry to grow
 We don’t want our Muslim brothers to fill out lengthy application forms, or provide
additional documentation such as letters of support from friends and employers,
pictures, copies of passports, and bank statements etc. to be eligible to enter
Pakistan as a tourist or even as an investor.
  Collecting such information decreases the chances of visits to enter any country this
initiative will attract them towards Pakistan.
 They don’t have to share confidential information a simple attested copy of their
character certificate will be enough to show as the arrival.
 Not only the rich peoples are allowed to see the world those who can afford to
travel will be encouraged to visit Pakistan as a visa free country.
 They don’t need nationality to stay in Pakistan.
 Definitely Nationality is a part which every investor wants to start his business in any
country but with the visa free country Pakistan will be the most suitable country for
their startups.

Now Passing on to Muhammad Kamran to further continue the facts

Thank you Mr. Hannan, As my friend Mr. Hannan was describing his findings that he come across, I
would like to add some more facts that I come across while reviewing the foreign policy of the other
visa free countries and we are successful than this could happen.

 They can start their business and help Pakistan to grow globally.
 They can also help us to make relations with their neighbor countries.
 Pakistan is struggling to have better relations with the other countries it will help
Pakistan to know their neighbors and build valuable relations with them.
 Pakistan will also become global village for all Islamic countries and facilitate trade
between them.
 It will make travelling easier for even medical patients who needs medical
assistance which is not yet available in their countries.
 They don’t have to wait around for the embassy or relevant body to process the
application for their visa.
 They don’t need to wait in those lengthy queues at border control or at airports on
their arrival, and they can be one of the lucky few who can access fast lanes.
