Additional Secretary Interior Salman Chaudhry said on Thursday that the United Arab Emirates had not been issuing visas to Pakistanis.
He made this revelation during a meeting of the Senate Functional Committee on Human Rights, further stating that Saudi Arabia and the UAE had “stopped short of imposing a ban on the Pakistani passport”.
“If a ban is imposed, getting it removed would be difficult,” he warned.
The official said currently, the UAE was only issuing visas to blue and diplomatic passport holders.
