Launched e-portals to facilitate investment

On 25 June 2020, the Board of Investment (BOI) launched three online portals, including the Electronic Joint Venture (EJV), Branch Liaison Management Information System (BLMIS) and Special Economic Zones (SEZs) Information Portal to digitize all services for the benefit of investors. The EJV portal is Pakistan’s first public sector online free business match-making service, which allows businesses to create partnerships worldwide. The portal allows enterprises to enlist their profiles on the website and provides information regarding new opportunities for investment. The BLMIS is an online application to aid the opening of branch offices and liaison offices in Pakistan. The application is a continuation of BOI’s Online Work Visa module, which has enabled companies to apply for work visas online, including payment of fees and grants of final visa documents. The SEZs Information Portal will help BOI to collect information from the enterprises and developers based in SEZs.
