The governments of Pakistan and UAE have initiated active measures to solve visa difficulties that affect Pakistani nationals to improve travel accessibility and grow economic partnerships. Faisal Niaz Tirmizi recognized Pakistan’s visa challenges through his position as the UAE ambassador while emphasizing how resolving credibility problems and criminal record issues matters the most. Pakistan’s remittance volumes and export volumes to the UAE continue to rise thus strengthening the trade bilateral relations between both nations. The government continues to implement initiatives for the advancement of skilled labor migration while developing new economic possibilities.
Visa Restrictions and Pakistan’s Response
The Pakistani Ambassador Faisal Niaz Tirmizi expressed major worry about the UAE’s denial of visas to citizens while both governments work together to find solutions for this issue. The UAE implements artificial intelligence (AI) system verification protocols which resulted in reinforced document examination processes. Variations between documentation and criminal records are the primary causes of visa refusals that Pakistani authorities intend to remedy through better domestic verification system development.
Tirmizi spoke about the need to verify that genuine individuals with clean backgrounds should be allowed to travel abroad. The UAE has increased its need for skilled workers which results in reduced demand for unqualified labor. Pakistan focuses on professional development for IT specialists along with artificial intelligence experts and accounting professionals as well as healthcare workers and physiotherapists to provide skilled labor for overseas markets.
Growing Trade Relations and Economic Cooperation
The growth of trade between Pakistan and UAE has continued despite immigration challenges as Gulf Country foreign remittances increased by 53.9 percent this year and analysts predict they will reach $3.58 billion by FY2025. The third position exists for Pakistan among UAE’s bilateral trading partners as the country expects to surpass $5.6 billion within the coming FY2023-24 period. The expansion of Pakistani exports to the UAE increased by 31% during the current fiscal half-year because food products and information technology services gained elevated market influence in that country.
Participation in UAE trade exhibitions by Pakistan led to increased IT exports which grew by 40%. Official experts believe that workforce development combined with enhanced Gulf Nation and UAE trading relations will establish Pakistan as a substantial supplier marketplace for both regions.
Pakistan-UAE Trade Conference 2025 and Future Prospects

The international gathering of business leaders diplomats and trade representatives from UAE, USA, China, and other nations at this event activated opportunities for economic partnership development.
