The Federal Investigation Agency’s Islamabad Zone has shifted its Pre-Departure Facilitation Desk from its zonal office directly to Islamabad International Airport. The move is intended to provide overseas passengers with convenient access to FIA Islamabad Airport assistance before completing immigration and departure procedures.
The desk will offer guidance on travel documentation, visa requirements and immigration procedures while addressing passenger queries and complaints, and the service is designed to improve coordination at the airport and help passengers resolve potential documentation concerns before reaching the final departure stage.
