Ordinary Pakistani passports have a deep green cover with golden-coloured content. The [[Emblem of Pakistan]] is emblazoned in the center of the front cover. The words 'Islamic Republic of Pakistan' ([[English language|English]]) are inscribed above the emblem and '{{lang-ur|اسلامی جمہوریہ پاکستان}}', '{{lang-ur|پاسپورٹ}}' and 'Passport' ([[English language|English]]) are inscribed below the emblem.

=== Discontinued types ===
[[Pakistan]] formerly issued a special [[Hajj passport]] to Pakistani nationals making an [[Islam]]ic pilgrimage known as [[Hajj]] to [[Mecca]], [[Saudi Arabia]]. These are no longer issued, and ordinary Pakistani passports may now be used for this purpose.
