The authorities of Pakistan have canceled visa fees for citizens of 126 countries, including Russia. The move is aimed at simplifying visa procedures and reducing financial barriers, which should help increase the flow of tourists to the country.
In addition, the decision demonstrates the desire of Pakistan, which is often seen as one of the most dangerous countries in the world, to develop tourism in the long term.
The new visa rules came into effect on August 14. The visa is valid for 90 days and the visa application process has become simpler - the number of questions in the application form has been reduced from 100 to 30. This is reported by the portal Visasnews.
