The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has stated that a policy regarding the arrival of Indian cricket fans for the upcoming Champions Trophy in Pakistan will be released shortly.

Sources revealed that discussions are ongoing among the Ministry of Interior, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) to finalize this policy.

A key proposal is under consideration to issue visas for Indians with a limited duration based on match schedules.

Another suggestion includes allowing fans to obtain visas by purchasing advance match tickets.

Government officials are actively evaluating various recommendations to facilitate the attendance of Indian fans while ensuring security and order during the event.

Further updates are expected as preparations continue for this significant cricket tournament.

On December 26, Information Minister Attaullah Tarar announced that Pakistan will relax its visa policy for cricket fans during the upcoming 2025 ICC Champions Trophy. Tarar emphasized that the relaxed visa regulations aim to promote Pakistan’s culture and tourism, urging fans to showcase their passion for cricket.
