Should be doable. You might have to explain why, but they should accept. There is no issue in the actual passport system preventing this. I have done it with more than 7 month validity and I know of others with even a year or more left, renewing it. However, those who did it in Pakistan usually were people with references (but I don't know if they actually needed those in this case or not) or my personal renewal experience is from Pakistani embassy in Toronto.murtazajaffri_cca said:

Dear Akbar, can you guide me for the process and which city did you get it renewed from brother. I heard they need some written statement; if we want to get our passport renewed before its expiry date? can you explain me about this as well.Akberansari said:

Getting renewal of passport is basic right and no reference is required. I got my passport renewed last week as existing is expiring in Nov 16. Just pay the required fee and go to passport office and follow normal procedures.fkl said:
I have successfully got my passport renewed from Karachi Passport office without any trouble and/or hindrance it was a sweet experience since i submitted my passport fee 1 day prior going for passport renewalalee667 said:
Read the earlier posts first. I was not talking about rights of renewing passport. The question was about renewing passport more than 6 months before expiry, which is not a very standard case. So at least you need to explain why are you basically trying to get it renewed much sooner. Moreover, some embassies of Pakistan all over the world (and even embassies of some other countries) put conditions like "we would only renew passport if there is x months left in its validity." The primary concern was overriding that, which as a few people mentioned here - were able to do without any issues.alee667 said:

I am happy that the time for rejection due to basic regulations such as r10/11 is passed now. I am worried about my medical actually. Because I am a VSD treated case and i submitted echo&ecg reports along with doctors analysis (positive as far as I predict as I got my self separately checked up by doctors in Liaquat National Hospital and forwarded the same reports to doctors in Jinnah Cardio Hospital and Dow Medical Hospital)
Every Cardio doctor was of the view that i possess no threat on health and future medication. I think the major delay for me is because PNP cases for Pakistanis are not processed early like others and they'll (LVO) will consume whole 6 months. I hope they issue PPR in the end my friend..
Friend, thats the point of concern for me, my medical isnt passed yet and it's reviewed since 20th november. Just to confirm this, I have ordered GCMS last week. I hope they have passed it in notesfkl said:
fingers crossed.
