In a bid to modernize and expedite immigration procedures, authorities have initiated preparations to install the fastest immigration e-gates at Jinnah International Airport in Karachi, Allama Iqbal International Airport in Lahore, and New Islamabad International Airport.
Sources close to the development revealed that preparations are already underway to bring the fastest immigration clearance facilities to these key hubs, aligning Pakistan with global standards in airport technology.
The plan, akin to practices in developed nations, aims to significantly reduce wait times for passengers departing on international flights.
The proposed introduction of "e-gates" is expected to revolutionize the traditional immigration procedures, allowing travelers to bypass long queues and complete their immigration clearance swiftly.
Discussions have commenced with relevant technology companies to facilitate the installation of these advanced gates at the designated airports.
Once operational, the e-gates will grant passengers the autonomy to conduct their own immigration clearance. However, it is crucial to note that travelers must possess an e-passport to avail themselves of this cutting-edge facility.
Authorities believe that this move is not only a significant step towards modernizing airport infrastructure but also a testament to Pakistan's commitment to providing world-class services to its air travelers.
The initiative is anticipated to enhance the overall efficiency of the immigration process, contributing to a seamless and hassle-free travel experience for both incoming and outgoing passengers.
