Why a Wafid token is mandatory in 2025
Every GCC-bound applicant needs a Wafid token to enter listed medical centers. The token holds your passport details, sponsor city, and appointment window. Pakistan applicants heading to Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Oman, Bahrain, or Kuwait cannot complete the medical without it, and UAE-bound applicants also need pre-booked medical appointments.
Documents you need ready
Gather everything before you message the coordinator. A clear passport copy, visa category or offer letter, two white-background photos, and an active phone number are non-negotiable. If you have prior X-rays or vaccination cards, include them to avoid secondary checks at Karachi, Lahore, or Islamabad clinics.
Key Points
- Passport with 6+ months validity
- Visa category or sponsor letter
- Two recent passport-size photos
- Active phone/email for OTP and receipts
- Sponsor city confirmation
Booking the token in four moves
Share documents, select the right clinic, approve the 2025 fee, and receive the QR. Karachi users often pick Shahrah-e-Faisal or Saddar, Lahore users opt for Johar Town or DHA, Islamabad/Rawalpindi use Blue Area or G-9/Saddar, and Peshawar or Quetta applicants select University Road or Jinnah Road clinics.
Key Points
- Send documents on WhatsApp or email
- Choose the nearest listed clinic
- Pay securely to generate the token
- Receive QR receipt and bilingual reminders
Avoid these Wafid token mistakes
Mismatched sponsor cities, late arrivals, and blurry passport scans cause most delays. Double-check your name spelling, print the QR slip, and leave early for traffic in Karachi, Lahore, or Islamabad. If you must change clinics, do it before the token is finalized to avoid duplicate fees.
Key Points
- Match sponsor city with clinic selection
- Print and save the QR slip in your phone
- Arrive 15–20 minutes early with originals
- Inform the coordinator immediately if plans change
Pakistan applicant steps and examples
For Karachi Wafid tokens, choose Shahrah-e-Faisal or Saddar; Lahore applicants should pick Johar Town or DHA; Islamabad/Rawalpindi applicants often use Blue Area, G-9, or Chaklala; Peshawar uses University Road or Hayatabad; Multan and Faisalabad rely on Bosan Road or D Ground panel clinics; Quetta focuses on Jinnah Road and Zarghoon; Gujranwala applicants look at Civil Lines or Model Town.
After you receive the Wafid token
Print the QR slip and pack documents the night before. Expect registration, blood tests, X-ray, and a doctor consultation. Results generally upload in 24–48 hours. If your travel shifts, request rescheduling before the cutoff to avoid paying the 2025 fee again.
Pakistan applicant checklist and city timing tips
Plan your travel time realistically: Karachi Shahrah-e-Faisal and Lahore Johar Town often face morning traffic; Islamabad Blue Area is busiest around peak office hours; Peshawar University Road and Quetta Jinnah Road get congested midday. Carry a printed QR, backup digital copy, and two extra photos in case the clinic printer is unavailable. Keep hydration in mind for blood tests, and let the coordinator know if you have prior X-rays so the clinic can review them without delaying your turn.
Key Points
- Carry printed and digital QR copies plus extra photos
- Buffer 30–45 minutes for traffic in major cities
- Keep vaccination or X-ray history handy for repeat exams
- Stay reachable for OTP and clinic calls on appointment day
