Step-by-Step Application Process
Choose Renewal Method (Online vs. Consular Mission)
If your passport is expired or expiring within 1 year, you can renew 100% online via DGIP (onlinemrp.dgip.gov.pk). Otherwise, schedule an in-person visit to your regional mission.
Verify CNIC / NICOP Validity
Ensure your Pakistani national identity document is valid and that your name, father's name, and marital status match your passport.
Prepare Required Documents
Gather your current Pakistani passport, Canadian status document (PR card/permit), proof of address, and foreign passport if you are a dual citizen.
Submit Application Online or Attend Mission
For online: fill the DGIP portal forms, upload photo & fingerprint form. For in-person: visit Ottawa, Toronto, Vancouver, or Montreal for live biometrics.
Pay Applicable Passport Fees
Pay the fee corresponding to your booklet size (36, 72, or 100 pages), validity (5 or 10 years), and service speed (Normal or Urgent).
Track Application Processing
Passports are printed centrally at DGIP in Islamabad. Track your tracking number online or follow mission consignment arrival lists.
Collect or Receive Your New Passport
Receive your new passport via courier or collect it at the mission upon surrendering your old passport for physical cancellation.
Important Consular Warnings
- The passport authority is DGIP, not NADRA. NADRA issues identity documents (CNIC/NICOP) which support the passport application.
- Use the official DGIP online portal: https://onlinemrp.dgip.gov.pk/. Beware of fake intermediary websites.
- Online renewal is available to overseas Pakistanis only when the passport has expired or has less than one year of validity remaining.
- Do not use outdated fee estimates like CAD 45–100. Current mission fees range from CAD $99 to $915 depending on page count, validity, and urgency.
- The 36-page, 72-page, and 100-page booklets have distinct 5-year and 10-year fee tiers.
- Urgent service carries a substantially higher fee ($262.50 vs $99 for 36-pg 5-yr) and prioritizes production in Islamabad.
- In-person MRP applications require personal attendance for live biometric data capture (photo, fingerprints, signature).
- Ottawa's in-person MRP process captures your photograph on-site; physical passport photos are not required for routine adult renewal in Ottawa.
- Consulate address update: Vancouver is at Unit 201, 1281 West Georgia St (not 1075 W Georgia St).
- Consulate address update: Toronto is at 7880 Keele St, Units 14–18, Vaughan.
- Passports are printed centrally in Islamabad, Pakistan, and shipped to Canada. International transit times can affect delivery.
- Lost passports require an official police report, verification from Pakistan, and attract double the standard fee for a first loss.
- Any discrepancy in name, father's name, or date of birth requires updating your CNIC/NICOP with NADRA before applying for passport modification.
- Married female applicants must have their marital status and husband's name updated on their CNIC/NICOP before renewing in their married name.
- Dual nationals must declare their foreign citizenship and provide their foreign passport.
- Government employees may require an official No Objection Certificate (NOC) issued within the previous 90 days.
