In principle, the 10-year tourism roadmap under ‘Brand Pakistan’ is guided by the government’s 2020-2030 vision to raise Pakistan’s tourism competitiveness by ensuring the utilization of the country’s natural, cultural, historical, and geographical assets.

For support, the government has also developed a five-year National Tourism Action Plan (2020-2025) to boost long-term tourism prospects in the right direction.
