The Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority (PCAA) is embarking on a transformative initiative by introducing e-gates at major airports across the country, including Karachi, Lahore, and Islamabad. This strategic move aims to streamline immigration processes, aligning Pakistan with the efficient systems prevalent in developed nations.
Sources from airports reveal that the installation of these e-gates has already commenced at key locations such as Jinnah International Airport in Karachi, Allama Iqbal Airport in Lahore, and Islamabad International Airport. The PCAA has engaged in discussions with a reputable United Arab Emirates company to implement this modern facility.
Upon successful installation, the e-gates will revolutionize the travel experience for passengers at major Pakistani airports. Drawing inspiration from global hubs like Dubai, these gates will enable travelers to bypass lengthy immigration queues, ensuring a swift and efficient process. However, access to this facility will require passengers to possess an e-passport, marking a step towards enhanced security and modernization in Pakistan’s aviation landscape. This development signifies the nation’s commitment to embracing technological advancements for the benefit of its citizens and visitors alike.
