I am asking this question here because I could not find a clear answer from anywhere.

Pakistan's requirement is a 72-hour PCR from the start of the trip but some travel agents are mixing up UK-Qatar-Pakistan and telling different rules of PCR test without accurate knowledge.

Does anyone have experience of going to Pakistan from UK and transit at Doha?

You need a negative PCR collected with in 72 hrs prior to boarding, irrespective of the destination or transits along the way.

Thanks.. The reason I am scared is that I have seen people being denied boarding for various PCR related reasons.

اللہ آپ کی نیت قبول فرمائے۔ ہمارے لیے بھی دعا کیجئے گا


بلاوا آ جائے بس . انشاءاللہ آپ کے لیے اور سب کے لیے دعا ہو گی
پہلے استنبول کی سلطان مسجد میں الله کے حضور سر بسجود ہونے کی بڑی تمنا تھی جو کرونا آنے سے سال پہلے رب نے پوری کی اب ھایا صوفیہ کی خواہش اور نیت کر لی ہے . اس پاک ذات سے امید ہے کہ وہ بھی پوری کریگا . انشاءاللہ​

Every country has it own requirements,
For Pakistan inbound, everyone one who is over 6 years old need a negative PCR test, airline will impose this on passenger, they may not board a passenger if no negative PCR provided.
For UK inbound, No PCR, no isolation for fully vaccinated citizen,(china n Russia vaccine not acceptable)
