Pakistan to keep its border with Afghanistan open for longer hours to support bilateral trade and the new Taliban-led government – FM Qureshi
Pakistani delegation included the head of the ISI intelligence service, Faiz Hameed, who visited Kabul in the immediate aftermath of the fall of the city.
Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi made the announcement on Thursday after returning from a daylong visit to Afghanistan's capital, Kabul, where he met with Taliban leaders. "In the past, Afghan businessmen were facing problems with visas. We have decided now that if any Afghan businessman wants to come to Pakistan, they will receive visa on arrival, which is valid for 30 days and there will be no requirements for security clearance."
