Pakistan Consulate Jeddah Location

Open the consulate’s official map link (from the Locate Us button on parepjeddah.org). It shows the Consulate General of Pakistan in Al Rehab, Jeddah. The website does not list a street address, so use the map pin for directions.

The Jeddah consulate serves Pakistanis in the western and southern regions. Its booking form lists these areas: Jeddah, Makkah, Madinah, Taif, Yanbu, Rabigh, Al Bahah, Abha, Khamis Mushait, Jazan and Najran. If you live in Riyadh or the Eastern Province, use the Embassy of Pakistan in Riyadh. NADRA also has a centre at Pakistan House in Madinah.

Some section pages on the website give a 9 am start, so arrive in good time for your slot. During Ramadan the consulate’s public hours are 9 am to 3 pm. Holiday closures are announced on the website and on its X account @PakinJeddah.

3. Pick an available date and time.
4. Enter each applicant’s details: full name, CNIC or NICOP number, mobile number and your area or region.
5. Submit. You get an SMS with a tracking ID. Use View / Cancel Appointment to print your slot or cancel it.

Bring all original documents and a copy of each. No appointment is needed for an emergency travel document.

Pakistani Passport Renewal in Jeddah

The passport section issues new passports and handles renewal, changes, and lost, damaged or full passports. Passports are valid for 5 or 10 years (children under 15 get 5 years), with 36, 72 or 100 pages. Normal processing takes about 4 weeks and urgent about 2 weeks.

Bring: your original CNIC or NICOP, your current passport and your original iqama, each with a copy. For a child, bring the CRC (B-Form) or NICOP and the parents’ documents; at least one parent must come. For a lost passport, bring an affidavit.

Fees are from the consulate’s passport page, which notes they can change on government instructions. To check what these amounts are in rupees, use our SAR to PKR rate page.

Online renewal: a simple renewal can be done at onlinemrp.dgip.gov.pk without visiting. New passports, lost passports and changes of details need an appointment. Renew about six months before expiry, and once you have the new passport, make sure its details are updated with Jawazat (your employer can do this) before you book an exit re-entry visa.

NICOP and NADRA Services

• Available in Jeddah: new NICOP (SNICOP), renewal, reprint, changes, Family Registration Certificate (FRC) and cancellation of a deceased relative’s card.
• Not available: a CNIC or Smart CNIC is issued only in Pakistan; abroad you apply for a NICOP.
• Online first: NICOP renewal and related services are on NADRA’s Pak-ID portal, so you may not need to visit.
• Bring: your original CNIC or NICOP and passport; for a first NICOP, the birth certificate with both parents’ names (attested by the Saudi MOFA) or passport, and both parents’ ID cards.
• Fees: paid in cash at the NADRA counter.

Attestation and Power of Attorney

The attestation section attests powers of attorney, affidavits, pension forms, degrees, birth, death and marriage certificates, and translations of Saudi documents and driving licences.

• The person signing a power of attorney or affidavit must come in person and sign and give a thumb impression in front of a consulate officer. Two witnesses are required.
• For a power of attorney, bring proof of property ownership if relevant, your CNIC or NICOP with a copy, an iqama copy, two passport-size photos, the attorney’s CNIC copy and Saudi mobile numbers.
• Documents issued in Saudi Arabia must first be attested by the Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
• Most attestations cost SAR 20 per document; translations cost SAR 20 to 100.
• Consulate teams also visit Madinah, Abha, Al Baha, Taif, Jazan, Yanbu and Bisha on a published schedule, so check before travelling to Jeddah.

Emergency Travel Document (ETD)

An emergency travel document lets a Pakistani return to Pakistan only, in a genuine emergency, for example a serious illness or death in the family, or a passport lost during Hajj, Umrah or a visit. No appointment is needed. Bring the application form, two recent photos with a white or blue background, a copy of the lost or expired passport, a copy of your CNIC and proof of the emergency. You cannot return to Saudi Arabia or travel to another country on an ETD.

Welfare Help: Labour Cases, Deaths and Jail Visits

The community welfare wing helps Pakistanis in the western region with disputes with employers, free interpreters at labour courts, repatriation of stranded workers, jail visits and death cases. Its direct line is 012 261 0574.

• Death, burial in Saudi Arabia: the consulate issues an NOC. Bring the hospital death notification, the deceased’s iqama and passport, and a power of attorney from the family.
• Death, body sent to Pakistan: the same documents plus the police report.
• Absconding (huroob) or unpaid wages: the welfare wing can advise and help with a complaint to the labour office. See our Huroob status check guide.
• OPF card: apply online at opf.org.pk or at the welfare wing.

Leaving Saudi Arabia for Good: Transfer of Residence

If you are going back to Pakistan for good, the consulate’s commercial section issues a Transfer of Residence (TR) certificate that gives some customs relief on your belongings at Pakistani ports. You need your Final Exit paper from Jawazat, passport copies including the Saudi entry stamp page, and proof of your job and earnings. It is issued the same day once the papers are complete. See our final exit visa guide and check your dues with the end of service calculator.
