Faisalabad’s passport offices
Faisalabad hosts a Regional Passport Office for standard applications and an Executive Passport Office — the premium NADRA-run facility with shorter queues (extra NADRA service charges apply). Between the two, most applicants are served without leaving the city. The RPO follows DGIP’s standard token-queue system: pay the fee via Passport Fee Asaan / Raast QR first, bring the original CNIC and old passport (for renewals), and keep the token receipt to track by SMS to 9988.
Multan: South Punjab Zone
Multan is the headquarters of DGIP’s South Punjab Zone (zonal office phone: 061-9220110), making its RPO the administrative hub for the region — Bahawalpur falls under its sub-zone. Multan’s office follows the standard 8:30 AM–4:30 PM Monday–Thursday schedule with shorter Friday hours (8:30 AM–12:30 PM, prayer break after). As with all offices, confirm current hours on dgip.gov.pk or the helpline 051-111-344-777 before visiting.
Other Punjab offices
- Rawalpindi (6th Road) — the twin city’s main RPO; Pindi applicants can also use Islamabad’s 24/7 office. See Islamabad timings.
- Gujranwala — Central Punjab Zone sub-zone office serving the Gujranwala division.
- Lahore (Shimla Pahari + Executive) — the province’s largest setup; see Passport Lahore.
Timings & tips
Standard Punjab RPO hours: 8:30 AM–4:30 PM Mon–Thu; Friday 8:30 AM–12:30 PM. Token counters close about an hour before the official end — arrive by mid-morning. Faisalabad’s Executive office is the queue-beater for urgent needs. And the usual warnings apply: never pay agents, never trust random map-listing phone numbers — DGIP’s complaint channels exist for a reason.
