Nasimul Gani, Senior Secretary of the Ministry of Home Affairs, graced the occasion as the chief guest. Commander Md Shoaib Khan, deputy project director of the e-Passport and Automated Border Control Management Project, was present as a special guest. The leader of the e-Passport and Automated Border Control Management project in Bangladesh, who was the guest of honor at the event, was not explicitly named in the search results. However, the project leader was present at the ceremony, alongside expatriate Bangladeshis and the high commission's staff.

This innovative service is expected to streamline the passport application process, making it more efficient and convenient for Bangladeshi citizens residing in Pakistan.

The launch of the e-passport services is a testament to the growing relationship between Bangladesh and Pakistan and is a step forward in facilitating easier travel for the citizens of both countries. The e-passport service is set to revolutionise the travel experience for Bangladeshis in Pakistan, offering a more secure and modern means of travel documentation.
