Personal Experience: I visited the counter at 9:30 where I had to explain my purpose of visit in order to get the application form. I went to Yemen Embassy in Islamabad and requested for the No Objection Certificate. I submitted in the application form along with passport and Pakistan visa copy, No Objection Certificate and 1 passport photo. I also paid the urgent visa fee in order to get it on the same day. It was very simple and easy.
