What the GAMCA (Wafid) token does in 2025
The GAMCA token—called the Wafid token on the new portal—is your booking ID for GCC medical tests in 2025. It links your passport to a specific listed clinic, appointment time, and destination country so Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Oman, Bahrain, Kuwait, or UAE accept your medical results. Without it, clinics will not admit you and immigration will not recognize the report.
Key Points
- Required for every GCC medical except UAE’s local pathway
- Ties your passport, sponsor city, and clinic appointment together
- Issued only after paying the portal fee and submitting documents
Step-by-step GAMCA token booking (Pakistan focus)
Booking a GAMCA token in Pakistan follows four predictable steps. Share a clear passport copy and visa category, choose your city clinic, confirm the 2025 fee, and receive the QR slip. Karachi residents often use Shahrah-e-Faisal or Saddar clinics, Lahore applicants pick Johar Town or DHA, and Islamabad travelers prefer Blue Area or G-9. Sharing your sponsor city upfront prevents rebooking.
Key Points
- Share passport + visa type on WhatsApp or email
- Pick the nearest listed clinic (Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Peshawar, Quetta, Multan, Faisalabad, Gujranwala)
- Pay securely; receive the Wafid QR slip within 30–60 minutes
- Print the slip and carry two white-background photos
Documents and 2025 fee checklist
For 2025, most Pakistan city tokens range between PKR 17,000 and PKR 20,000 depending on urgency. Always keep your passport valid for six months, have two recent white-background photos, and mention your sponsor city to lock the right GCC medical center. If you have prior X-ray or vaccination records, carry them; some clinics ask repeat visitors for history.
Key Points
- Passport copy with 6+ months validity
- Visa category or offer letter
- Two photos (white background)
- Active phone number for OTP and reminders
- Sponsor city (Riyadh, Doha, Muscat, etc.)
How to avoid GAMCA token mistakes
The biggest mistakes are mismatching sponsor city and clinic, sending blurry passports, or arriving late. Always double-check the spelling on your QR slip, confirm the clinic address the day before, and keep your phone on for OTP. If you need to change cities—say from Lahore to Islamabad—do it before the token is finalized to avoid fresh fees.
Key Points
- Match clinic to sponsor city to prevent rejection
- Print the QR and keep a digital backup
- Arrive 15–20 minutes early; traffic buffers are essential
- Share prior medical issues so the clinic can prepare

Share your nearest landmark so coordinators give you the right map pin.

After you receive the token
Save the QR slip, print it, and pack originals the night before. Expect registration, blood work, a chest X-ray, and a doctor consultation. Results typically upload within 24–48 hours. If your travel date changes, ask for a reschedule before the clinic cutoff to avoid paying a new 2025 fee.
