UK to Pakistan via Iran - carnet/visa situation
Hello all. My younger brother and I are planning a trip at the end of this month from the depths of Yorkshire all the way to the Punjab. We’ve been doing our homework, have cleared the hurdle of an Iranian Visa but are now faced with entry into Pakistan as the next challenge. We are both classed as dual nationals, and have a British Passport and a National ID Card for Overseas Pakistanis.
Now the company we are using to arrange our Carnet (cars international) are saying one of us must have a Pakistani visa for the Carnet to be accepted as we enter Pakistan. Is this correct? The issue is that as holders of the ID card I don’t think we can apply for a Visa.
I’m heading to the Pakistani Visa processing centre at the end of the week but I thought I’d ask here if anyone has experience of entering Pakistan with a Carnet and a NICOP card and if it really is a deal breaker.
Any advice gratefully received!
