Turkmenistan Visa from Pakistan

Planning to visit Ashgabat or the Darvaza gas crater from Pakistan? Rana Travel Advisor helps Pakistani applicants understand Turkmenistan’s visa route, one of the most tightly controlled in the world, and prepare their supporting documents.

Turkmenistan does not operate a general tourist e-Visa. Entry normally requires a Letter of Invitation (LOI) arranged through a registered Turkmen tour operator or host and approved by the State Migration Service before a visa can be issued at a Turkmen embassy or consulate.
