Information for Indian passport holders

Speakers who hold an Indian passport are required to submit their documents to the SDPI latest by Monday, 4 September 2006. Scanned copies of the following documents are required for facilitating visas of the Indian passport holders:

  1. Clearly scanned copy of the passport's first 4 pages that include particulars about their names, passport number, name of the father/spouse, date/place of birth, address, date and place of issue, date of expiry and their photo;
  2. A clearly scanned passport size photo;
  3. Filled pro-forma of the Ministry of Interior;
  4. Designation and name of your organization;
  5. Permanent address;
  6. Present address if different from the above;
  7. Phone and fax number(s), and email address;
  8. For police registration, please bring with you three photographs and three photocopies of your passport including the first four pages and the page stamped with Pakistani visa.

Documents submitted later than the Monday, 4 September 2006, will not be entertained or cleared for visa by the Ministry of Interior, Islamabad. The Ministry of Interior will issue a letter of clearance upon receipt of the relevant documents. The Ministry of Interior requires at least 8 to 10 weeks to process the application. A copy of the letter of clearance will be faxed to the speaker by the SDPI. The speaker will then approach the High Commission of Pakistan to have the visa stamped on the passport. Apart from the visa clearance letter, the speaker will also need to carry an original letter of invitation for the Conference from the SDPI while applying for the visa.

Kindly note, the SDPI can sponsor visa only for Islamabad. If a speaker intends to travel to another city in Pakistan, s/he will need to have the visa sponsored by a sponsor in that city.

Please email scanned copies of the above documents to the SDC Consultant, Shamil Shams, at: shamil@sdpi.org
