Kazakhstan Visa for Pakistani – Tourist, Student, Work and Business Visa for Kazakhstan for Pakistan citizens
A Pakistani citizen needs to have a visa to enter and travel Kazakhstan as a tourist. Unfortunately, as of January 2023, a tourist from Pakistan has to apply for a paper/physical visa at the Kazakh embassy in Islamabad. The following steps need to be taken in order to get a Kazakh tourist visa (B12). First of all, a letter of invitation (LOI) from a licensed Kazakh tour operator is required. To obtain this LOI, he/she needs to send the following items to the operator:
-photo/scan of a passport
-employment details
-home address
-planned accommodation
-planned arrival date.
Based on the above data, the tour operator will apply the papers at the migration department to have the LOI issued. It takes around 6-10 working days. Next the tourist goes to the Kazakh embassy in person, delivers a copy of the LOI, passport size pictures, some medical examination papers (upon request), a bank account statement, etc. and fills in the visa application form. Probably, an interview by a visa officer is also necessary. Although one needs to call up the embassy to get updated. Visa is issued in 5 working days, as a rule. As one can see, it takes time and effort. That is why a Kazakhstan visa for Pakistani nationals is not very easy to get. Only after obtaining a visa, one can enter Kazakhstan and stay for 30 days. For comparison, the same visa is given online for citizens of 109 countries. What a relief!
