Visit visa appointment availability in Pakistan

Destination	Earliest slot	Centre	Cities

Sorted soonest first. Destinations not listed are either decided online with no appointment, or have no confirmed reading right now.

How we collect this

We check each mission's booking portal on a schedule, read the earliest available slot for every centre it offers, and record the reading with a timestamp. This page shows the most recent reading per destination.

We publish confirmed readings only. When a read fails we drop that destination from the table rather than showing it blank, because "no reading" and "no appointments" are very different claims and conflating them would make this page useless.

Can you apply somewhere else just to get an earlier slot?

For Schengen, no, and trying is a recognised cause of refusal. The rules require you to apply to the country where you will spend the most nights, or your first point of entry when the nights are split evenly. Applying elsewhere because the queue is shorter creates a contradiction between your appointment and your itinerary, and consulates look for exactly that.

The right order is to choose the destination first, then use this table to work out how early you need to start.

Cities are not interchangeable

Not every mission accepts applications in all three cities. Greece and the Netherlands currently take Pakistani applications in Islamabad only, which means an applicant in Karachi has to travel for biometrics. Check the destination page before you plan anything around a date.
