ISLAMABAD: The Directorate General of Immigration and Passports has launched a new digital system to moniter passport applications, printing, and deliveries in real time.
Pakistan’s Passport Department, in a social media post, announced that the new system will provide faster processing and improved service for passport applicants across Pakistan and abroad.
The system has a 24/7 monitoring room at its headquarters on the instructions of DG Immigration and Passports Mustafa Jamal Kazi.
The initiative will permit the authorities to keep an eye on every stage of passport processing, from the first step to the final stage of delivery, and automatically identify high-traffic periods at passport offices.
The Digital Integrated Dashboard will also monitor staff performance, machinery status, and backlogs, to immediately resolve issues as they arise.
“This modern monitoring system will enhance the performance of DGIP, ensuring that both the officers’ and staff’s efficiency, as well as the citizens’ experience, are closely tracked,” Kazi said.
