Looking for the Intelligence Bureau Pakistan official website? The honest answer is less straightforward than for most agencies — and understanding why tells you something about how the IB works.
Quick answer: The IB’s listed official website is ib.gov.pk. The Bureau keeps a deliberately low public profile: it publishes no press releases and runs no public helpline. Formal contact runs through the Prime Minister’s Office and the Ministry of Interior.

The official website
The Bureau’s listed web address is ib.gov.pk. Availability from outside Pakistan can be inconsistent — the site has at times been unreachable from foreign networks, which is unremarkable for an intelligence agency’s web presence. The Bureau also maintains an official Facebook presence under “Intelligence Bureau (IB)”, used sparingly for institutional announcements.
Why the IB keeps a low profile
Unlike police or the FIA, an intelligence bureau does not take public complaints or publish operational news. Its “customers” are the Prime Minister, the cabinet and law-enforcement agencies — not the citizen. Public silence is a feature, not a bug.
How official contact works
There is no public IB helpline. Citizens with security information use the normal channels: police (15), the FIA, or — for grievances against the state — the Pakistan Citizen Portal. Government-to-government contact runs through the PM Office / Cabinet Division, where the IB Division is now housed.
Careers and recruitment
IB officers are recruited through the Federal Public Service Commission (FPSC) competitive process and departmental channels; there is no walk-in recruitment. Watch fpsc.gov.pk for advertised posts — IB vacancies appear under federal government advertisements like any other civil posts.
