German Embassy Closed in Karachi for Pakistani Visas

The German Consulate in Karachi has announced a temporary suspension of its services for non-EU citizens, citing imminent security concerns. This significant development was communicated through an official tweet posted by the consulate’s account.

The consulate’s statement read, “Due to imminent security concerns, the Consulate of the Federal Republic of Germany will remain closed for services of non-EU citizens until further notice.”

While the consulate has halted the processing of new visa applications for non-EU citizens, it has made provisions for those with already issued visas. The consulate assured that non-EU citizens whose visas have already been processed can still collect them.

This sudden move has left many Pakistanis uncertain about their travel plans and visa applications. The consulate has yet to provide a detailed explanation regarding the specific nature of the security concerns prompting this decision.

The suspension of services is expected to affect a significant number of individuals, including students, business travelers, and tourists, who rely on the consulate for visas and other related services.
