  • Proof of accommodation for the full stay

  • Temporary Residence Visa: for work, study, or family reunification longer than 90 days, fee and requirements vary and processed via the Consulate directly

How to apply

  • Since Chile has limited direct consular presence for Pakistan, applications are typically submitted via the Chilean Consulate with jurisdiction over Pakistan or an authorized visa processing partner.
  • Complete the online pre-application form referenced on extranjeria.gob.cl
  • Gather and submit all required documents at the consulate or partner visa center
  • Pay the applicable visa fee based on the reciprocity schedule for Pakistani nationals
  • Attend a biometrics appointment if required
  • Await the decision; approved visas are affixed to the passport or issued as an authorization letter to present on arrival

Fees & processing time

  • Tourist visa fee: approximately USD 30-45 (about PKR 8,500-12,700) based on the reciprocity rate for Pakistan
  • Business visa fee: approximately USD 45-60
  • Facilitation/courier charges may add PKR 3,000-5,000 given the limited local consular footprint
  • Standard processing time: 15-20 working days
  • No widely published expedited option; apply well ahead of travel

Tips for Pakistan travelers

  • Apply at least 4-6 weeks before travel given the processing time and limited consular presence for Pakistan
  • Common rejection reasons: insufficient funds, unclear travel purpose, or incomplete documentation
  • Confirm the exact current visa fee for Pakistani nationals before applying, as reciprocity-based fees are periodically updated
  • Keep certified translations (Spanish or English) of Urdu-language financial and employment documents
  • Extensions of stay inside Chile can be requested at the Chilean immigration department (Jefatura Nacional de Extranjeria y Migracion) before the current visa expires
