UAE Opens the Largest Visa Centre in Asia in Karachi

Share

The largest visa centre in Asia has opened in Karachi thanks to the United Arab Emirates (UAE). There are 11 counters in it, and it will offer consular services in line with the most recent global norms.

CM Sindh Syed Murad Ali Shah, who also visited the visa centre, was informed of its offerings. He was told that the centre had the power to grant work permits.

The new immigration centre in Karachi represents the “window of employment,” for which the CM Sindh congratulated the UAE government. He also expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to use this resource to assist residents of Sindh and Balochistan in finding jobs in the United Arab Emirates.

The UAE is home to more than 1.6 million Pakistani expats who work in both the public and commercial sectors and send more than $4 billion in remittances each year. The opening of the visa centre strengthens bilateral ties between the nations even further.

Launch of Wizz Air in Pakistan

One of the largest airlines in the UAE, Wizz Air Abu Dhabi, will shortly begin operating flights to and from Pakistan after receiving authorisation from the federal government.

At a meeting in April of this year, the federal cabinet approved Wizz Air Abu Dhabi’s plans to run flights within the nation.

In a similar vein, Pakistan has also asked the UAE for permission to start a private airline. The private airline’s identity has also not yet been made public, thus this choice has not advanced.
