All Afghan citizen cardholders and illegal aliens are being instructed to leave pakistan by march 31 by the country's interior ministry. Furthermore, the ministry has issued a warning that such persons will begin deportation on april 1 if they do not depart the country by march 31.
 
Pakistan has consistently accused Afghan nationals of being responsible for crimes and terrorist activities that take place inside its borders. afghanistan, however, has denied these claims.  According to a statement from the Pakistani Interior Ministry, pakistan has been a kind host and is still upholding its duties as a responsible nation.  It is emphasized once more that residents of pakistan are required to fulfill all legal requirements.
 
The majority of the foreign nationals evacuated by pakistan in 2023 were Afghans.  Pakistan eventually declared that foreigners without valid passports would be evacuated first, nevertheless. More than 800,000 Afghans in pakistan are citizens, according to figures from the United Nations. There are over 1.3 million individuals who have separate residency cards and are officially registered with the Pakistani government. The announcement from the Pakistani government, however, made no mention of the effect this would have on those with residency permits.
 
According to the UN, more than 800,000 Afghans have left pakistan for afghanistan since 2023, and in all, pakistan has taken in over 28 million Afghan refugees.  These people traveled to pakistan during the last 40 years of the continuing wars in Afghanistan.
