Visa application in the published branch: PKR 0 (narrow inference; all arrival/departure charges unknown)
Zero is a narrow planning inference because the published branch requires no visa application. It is not a quoted all-in arrival tariff.
Retained limits
- Undated hotel tariff has contextual PKR, unknown board and financial terms. Both tax-included and extra digital/cash cases remain conditional; all meals stay paid.
- The café prices include taxes. Other service/payment charges, water tax and hotel delivery/receipt remain unknown. The regular water price is a visible comparator; sale price is separately modelled.
- The eleven-hour city schedule depends on the stated 12-hour table despite generic 8–12-hour wording. Mileage, overtime, tolls and parking are unpriced when needed.
- Shalamar’s selected fee is a historical/secondary reference with conflicting figures and unverified current authority tariff; no current-price claim is made.
- Saudi entry uses a published GCC branch with explicit inference and retained conflicting pages. Passport residual validity, actual border document checklist and personal route/status requirements remain qualified.
- Airport coordinates and image are explicitly missing. Source evidence types and any absent visual verification are disclosed. Provider holds remain enforced.
- These cases are neither a market range nor a maximum payable amount. International airfare, actual booking, production integration/testing and publication are outside this preparation approval.
Further qualifications
- The Terrace Café menu is current public supplier evidence for42-AJoharTown,Lahore. Meal quantities are one published plate per adult; serving weights, egg counts and dietary suitability are not verified. No halal guarantee.
- Menu says PKR prices include taxes. No additional8%or16%restaurant tax is added. Service charges, compulsory gratuity, payment surcharge and future menu validity remain unknown, not zero.
- The water allowance uses19listed1.5Ldrinking-water units at the visible regular comparator95rather than assuming the75sale continues. Current-sale goods value1425and regular-reference1805are separate cases. Water tax inclusion is unstated.
- Pure Sips lists GulbergIIcoverage, minimumRs200and free delivery aboveRs500. This supports a conditional zero delivery-fee reference for the1805allowance, not a confirmed hotel delivery, stock check or order.
- Same-day delivery requires ordering before14:00Monday–Saturday; Sunday delivers Monday. ProposedTuesdayMarch16hotel receipt depends on flight arrival, exact delivery acceptance, volume capacity and stock, all unverified. An interim water purchase must be priced if this timing fails.
- The product list establishes drinking-water type and1.5Lunit volume. Sealed-container details and actual19-unit fulfilment are not separately verified. Supplier safety/certification claims were not independently checked.
- FridayMarch19lunch is14:30after the published12:30–14:30closure. Other planned meals fit current listed hours. March2027holiday/menu changes and actual availability remain unverified.
- Daily transport is modeled separately from Rose Palace Gulberg to Johar Town, roughly08:00–19:00. It relies on the supplier12-hourtariff despite8–12-hourFAQ wording; actual route distance,100kmallowance and heritage-stop fit remain qualified.
- All42meals are paid, with no hotel-board credit. Seven full calendar days are a comparison convention; arrival breakfast and departure dinner have no confirmed flight timing.
- Hotel currency is contextual, board unverified, and deposit/payment/cancellation/no-show conditions unknown; check-in after15:00, checkout11:00.
- Cash16% or digital8% lodging sensitivities come from independent2026 tax reporting; the hotel’s inclusion, registration, accepted payment and future application are unverified.
- The11-hour example fits the explicitly priced12-hour tariff if that shift is honored. It exceeds an8-hour assignment; the supplier’s8–12-hour wording remains unresolved. Repeated Johar Town–heritage-area legs make the100-km condition material. No total distance or travel time has been measured. Any excess fuel, overtime, parking or tolls remain unpriced, not zero.
- Separate airport transfers retain the explicit two one-way fares. Unknown flight times mean a full08:00–19:00 car day and three meals on arrival/departure days are conditional. No airport fare is duplicated inside city hire.
- The driver drops and retrieves the party at practical vehicle-access points near each site or restaurant. Walking inside Fort, Gardens and bazaar is part of the visit. Exact entrance, drop-off points, lane lengths, surface conditions, step-free access and personal safety have not been certified. No long hotel-to-site walking leg is invented.
- No current GCC-specific full border checklist or legal instrument was obtained. The 2024 exemption is still published and corroborated, while generic mission instructions conflict. Health/transit and flight-specific charges remain downstream. No passport, residence, vaccination or previous immigration history was supplied. No full destination approval follows from this category packet.
