Did you get your passport back? Plus when are you thinking of flying to Canada?

 

[husnainramay]

Yes I did two days ago. I am not sure, will go in September for soft landing probably.

Guys @muspal @husnainramay @Sicilian @ambee I am flying to Canada this week. Had a few imp questions to ask. Please reply
1. Do I need a PCR Test or is vaccination certificate from Nadra suffice?
2. Do I need anything to clear immigration at Pakistan? Any document or clearance? I am asking because they refuse to let you board flight if you are going out on a work permit without clearance from employment department in Pakistan. Does anything similar if you are going out of the country on immigrant visa?
3. Is there any restriction on taking personal gold jewelry from Pakistan. I am based in Karachi
4. when taking a cardboard box as a piece of baggage what size box is allowed. (turkish airline)

Please answer as many questions as you guys can

1. No need for PCR as long as you're fully vaccinated with approved vaccines unless required by your airline. I assume you already know that you have to use ArriveCan app.
2. No don't need anything. Rest it is Pakistan if they want to cause hassle for you they can.
3. Same as point 2.
4. No idea, you should ask airline to be sure.

Also, how much did your ticket cost you?

Your queries have been answered by @muspal. Just for your second question, are you planning a soft landing? and do you have an ordinary passport, with nothing mentioned as profession?

Same question. Cost of your ticket please @nemo123?
