LAHORE – The Directorate General of Immigration and Passport offers fast track serves for issuances of passport to those who want to get the travel document in a couple of days.
The other two categories offered by the directorate include normal and urgent. The fee structure and passport delivery time for all three categories is different.
In normal category, the travel document is issued within 21 working days while it took five days in urgent category.
However, there is massive delay in passport delivery in normal and urgent categories due to printing issues, forcing people to opt the fast track service.
The directorate delivers passport within two working days in fast track category but the fee is much higher than two other categories.
