ISLAMABAD: The Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) stated on Saturday that the authority has streamlined the VPN registration process for organizations and freelancers.
Entities such as software houses, call centers, banks, embassies and freelancers can now easily register their VPNs online through the PTA’s official website: www.pta.gov.pk.
The Pakistan Software Export Board (PSEB) members can also avail this facility. Registration involves completing an online form and providing basic details, including CNIC, company registration details and taxpayer status. Freelancers must submit documentation, such as a letter or email, verifying their project or company association.
Additionally, applicants must provide the IP address for VPN connectivity. If a fixed IP address is required, it can be acquired from an Internet Service Provider (ISP). The registration process is free, and approvals are typically granted within 8-10 hours of submission. To-date, more than 20,000 companies and freelancers have successfully registered their VPNs through this process.
Any individual requiring VPN for commercial purposes can apply under ‘Freelancer’ category and needs to provide required information, including supporting evidence from the employer.
