How to Pay Passport Fee Through Passport Asaan App

Quick Answer

Download the Passport Asaan App from Google Play or App Store. Select "Fee Payment", enter your passport application details, choose 36 or 72 pages and processing speed, and pay via debit/credit card, JazzCash, Easypaisa, or bank transfer. The payment receipt is generated instantly — show it at your passport office appointment.

What the Passport Asaan App Does

The Passport Asaan App replaced the old bank challan system for passport fee payments. Instead of standing in a bank queue to deposit the fee, you pay from your phone in 2 minutes. The app generates a digital receipt that's verified electronically at the passport office — no paper challan needed.

Other Ways to Pay Passport Fees

The process for this passport service follows DGIP's standard workflow. Visit the DGIP portal or your nearest passport office to initiate. Always verify current requirements on the official DGIP website as procedures can change.

Verify current fees and timelines. DGIP updates passport fees and processing times periodically. The figures in this guide are based on the latest available information — always confirm on the DGIP portal or Passport Asaan App before paying.

Payment Troubleshooting

  • Paying before completing the online form — pay after filling your application details, not before. The fee is linked to your application.
  • Choosing the wrong passport type — once paid, switching from 36-page to 72-page (or vice versa) requires a refund and re-payment. Choose carefully.
  • Not saving the digital receipt — the passport office needs your payment confirmation. Screenshot it and save the transaction ID.
  • Paying for someone else without their CNIC — each fee payment is linked to a specific CNIC number. Ensure you enter the correct applicant's CNIC during payment.
