A person holding nationalities of two countries is a DUAL national. Government of Pakistan has dual nationality arrangements with 19 countries including UK. Details of these countries are available at http://www.dgip.gov.pk/files/immigration.aspx#IV

Passport (either British or Pakistan) is a must while entering/leaving any country. While NADRA (NICOP) card is a person's identification document, a Passport, in general, serves as a TRAVEL DOCUMENT and should be carried while crossing international borders from one country to another.

In addition, a person should also carry any form of personal identification document (in order to prove his/her identity) as well as a valid Passport (for immigration purposes). Immigration officers at all border entry/exit points reserve the right to ask for personal identity (i.e. NADRA/NICOP/POC cards) as and when required.

You should apply for a new passport well in advance before the expiry of the present one in order to avoid any emergency travel situation. In general, it's a good idea to apply four to six months in advance before the expiry of the present passport.

Details of all types of passport applications are available at Pakistan High Commission, London's website at https://www.phclondon.org/mrp-requirements

For applicants above 18 years, and applying for the first time, we need longer processing times. Since the passports are approved and printed in Pakistan, first time applicants need to go through additional processing procedures which take more time than normal processing times. Please bear in mind that the Passport Department at the Pakistan Consulate in Birmingham collects data of the applicants, while the processing and printing of the passport takes place in Pakistan.

Given the importance of the document, it's advisable that you personally collect your passport. However, we also have the facility to post it to your given address upon payment of additional postage charges.

Yes, you may authorize anyone else to collect your passport on your behalf. However, you need to give him/her a written authorization letter, along with a copy of your NADRA/CNIC card

If a document is not issued from, or generated in Pakistan, and needs to be used in Pakistan, then it needs to be legalized/attested by the nearest Embassy/High Commission/Consulate General.

An attested document serves as a replacement of a 'Stamp Paper', generated from outside Pakistan, to be used inside Pakistan as a legal document.

Legalization/Attestation does not authenticate the veracity of the document. The Consulate has nothing to do with the written contents of the Power of Attorney and is only attesting the signatures.

We legalize/attest a number of different documents, including Powers of Attorney, birth, marriage, character or death certificates, affidavits or bank authorizations etc. further details are available at https://www.phclondon.org/attestation

Pl note that we have DIFFERENT TIMINGS for SUBMISSION of documents (1000-1230 hrs) and COLLECTION of documents (1600-1700 hrs).

Documents are collected from 1000 hrs in the morning upto 1230 hrs..

Documents are returned after completion of legalization/attestation procedure between 1600 hrs to 1700 hrs.

This procedure of Legalization/Attestation includes a number of steps like proper documentation, collection of fingerprints, affixation of stamps, embossing of documents, scanning & uploading of the documents, generating a PASSCODE etc. All this process is completed after the Collection of documents (i.e.in the intervening time between collection and return of the documents).

We do not have any such requirement on our end. However, you need to ascertain any legal requirements from the beneficiary in whose name, you are executing the Attorney.

You do not necessarily need to go to a Solicitor for a Power of Attorney. A Power of Attorney may be printer on a plain paper, and is to be signed in front of the Consulate's authorized staff member.

There is no specified format of a Power of Attorney. However, a Power of Attorney should contain details of:

1. The person executing the document (i.e. Name, Address, ID Number, Photograph etc), as well as.
2. Details of the person in whose favour the Attorney is being Executed (i.e. Name, Address, ID Number or any other relevant detail).
3. The details of the property/item whose Attorney is being generated (i.e. Property located at ... and the nature of Attorney – i.e. authority to execute sale/rent/lease/... on behalf of the Executant etc).

It's not a compulsory requirement of the Consulate to have witnesses. However, if you have been told by the Beneficiary (i.e. in whose name you are executing the Power of Attorney) to include witnesses as well, then you will need to include witnesses as well, as advised by the Beneficiary.

There is no need for the witnesses to physically come to the Consulate, except when executing INHERITANCE WILL or WISH Documents.

Generally, you need to bring along the original document along with a photocopy of the original document, two passport size photographs and your ORIGINAL valid National Identity card.

Details of documents required are available at: https://www.phclondon.org/attestation
