Why Thailand Impose Strict Policy on Visa Applications
This move from Thailand comes after Dubai and several other countries have imposed strict visa policies for Pakistani applicants.
The reason? A large number of travelers are not doing what they claim in their visa application, either overstaying or engaging in unapproved activities.
Impact on Pakistanis Global Reputation
This ongoing trend of visa fraud and illegal immigration attempts is damaging Pakistan image internationally. It not only harms genuine travelers but also weakens Pakistan ability to build stronger foreign relations with countries of interest.
