What Is the CM Punjab Parwaz Card Program?
The Parwaz Card is a government-backed, interest-free loan scheme (Qarz-e-Hasna) run by the Punjab Skills Development Fund (PSDF). Unlike business-loan schemes, it is designed specifically for skilled youth of Punjab who already hold a confirmed job offer from an overseas employer. The loan covers the upfront pre-departure expenses that many families cannot afford: visa fees, air tickets, medical tests and protectorate charges.
- Skilled youth of Punjab aged 18 and above
- Holders of a valid CNIC
- Applicants with a confirmed overseas job offer letter
- No application fee is charged at any stage
The scheme targets 50,000 young people, and the entire process — from application to loan disbursement — is 100% digital through the official PSDF portal.
Key Features and Benefits of Parwaz Card 2026
Here’s why the Parwaz Card is different from traditional loans:
Interest-Free Loans
Borrowers repay only the original loan amount of up to Rs 300,000 — zero markup and zero hidden charges. The amount is meant strictly for pre-departure overseas employment expenses such as visa fees, air tickets, medical tests and protectorate charges.
