Pakistan embassy in Muscat

Country forums / Middle East / Oman

Hi all,

Could anyone tell me the Pakistan embassy is still located on Madina Sultan Qaboos, way 2133. Does any one has recent experience with getting the visa (I am Dutch and really try to get in Pakistan!) I know it's extremely difficult those days, but still, I could give it a try from Oman?

Thanks, regards Cindy

As far as I am aware it still is located there. Easy to find and taxi drivers will know it. I suspect the real issue will be to get the visa. I didn't try to apply in Muscat but in Dubai where I had my residency back then. It was a tiring and complicated process, I had to show them bank statements of the previous few months and it was not possible for me to apply for a PAK visa at any embassy outside my country of residence. No harm trying though. Good luck!

Thanks. Maybe it has become too much of a hassle these days. Perhaps I should not try to go through Pakistan at all? I am on a bicycle and heard you will get an escort, which is not very lovely while riding the bicycle...

Did you have any luck Cindy?
