Application has been made to admit the Notes to listing on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and to trading on the
Luxembourg Stock Exchange's Euro MTF market (the Euro MTF Market). The Euro MTF Market is not a regulated market pursuant to the
provisions of Directive 2004/39/EC. This offering circular (the Offering Circular) constitutes a prospectus for the purposes of the Luxembourg
law dated 10 July 2005 on prospectuses for securities, as amended.
Prospective investors should be aware that none of the statistical information in this Offering Circular has been independently
verified. An investment in the Notes involves certain risks. For a discussion of these risks see "Risk Factors" beginning on page 6 of this
Offering Circular.
The Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act or with any securities regulatory authority of any state or
other jurisdiction of the United States and may not be offered, sold or delivered within the United States except pursuant to an
exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
Securities Act) and applicable state securities laws. Accordingly, the Notes are being offered, sold or delivered: (a) in the United
States only to qualified institutional buyers (QIBs) (as defined in Rule 144A (Rule 144A) under the Securities Act) in reliance on, and in
compliance with, Rule 144A (the Restricted Notes); and (b) outside the United States in reliance on Regulation S (Regulation S) under
the Securities Act (the Unrestricted Notes). Each purchaser of the Notes will be deemed to have made the representations described
in "Plan of Distribution" and "Transfer Restrictions" and is hereby notified that the offer and sale of Notes to it, if in the United States,
is being made in reliance on the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Rule 144A. In
addition, until 40 days after the commencement of the offering, an offer or sale of any of the Notes within the United States by any
dealer (whether or not participating in the offering) may violate the registration requirements of the Securities Act if the offer or sale is
made otherwise than in accordance with Rule 144A. The Notes are not transferable except in accordance with the restrictions
described under "Plan of Distribution" and "Transfer Restrictions".
The Notes will be offered and sold in denominations of U.S.$200,000 and integral multiples of U.S.$1,000 in excess thereof. The Unrestricted
Notes will initially be represented by interests in a global unrestricted certificate in registered form (the Unrestricted Global Certificate), without
interest coupons, which will be deposited with a common depositary for, and registered in the name of a nominee of, Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V.
(Euroclear) and Clearstream Banking, société anonyme (Clearstream, Luxembourg) on the Closing Date. Beneficial interests in the
Unrestricted Global Certificates will be shown on, and transfers thereof will be effected only through, records maintained by Euroclear or
Clearstream, Luxembourg. The Restricted Notes will initially be represented by a global restricted certificate in registered form (the Restricted
Global Certificate and, together with the Unrestricted Global Certificate, the Global Certificates), without interest coupons, which will be
deposited with a custodian for, and registered in the name of a nominee of, The Depository Trust Company (DTC) on 30 September 2015 or
such later date as may be agreed (the Closing Date) by the Issuer and the Managers (as defined under "Plan of Distribution"). Beneficial
interests in the Restricted Global Certificates will be shown on, and transfers thereof will be effected only through, records maintained by DTC
and its participants. See "Clearing and Settlement Arrangements". Individual definitive note certificates in registered form (Individual
Certificates) will only be available in certain limited circumstances as described herein. It is expected that delivery of the Global Certificates
will be made in immediately available funds on the Closing Date (i.e. the fifth Business Day following the date of pricing of the Notes
(such settlement cycle being herein referred to as T+5)).

information which is material in the context of the Notes, that the information contained or incorporated
in this Offering Circular is true and accurate in all material respects and is not misleading, that the
opinions and intentions expressed in this Offering Circular are honestly held and that there are no
other facts the omission of which would make this Offering Circular or any of such information or the
expression of any such opinions or intentions misleading.
No person is or has been authorised to give any information or to make any representation other than
those contained in this Offering Circular in connection with the offering of the Notes and, if given or
made, such information or representations must not be relied upon as having been authorised by the
Issuer or any of the Managers. Neither the delivery of this Offering Circular nor any sale made
hereunder shall, under any circumstances, constitute a representation or create any implication that
there has been no change in the affairs of the Issuer since the date hereof. Neither this Offering
Circular nor any other information supplied in connection with the issue of the Notes constitutes an
offer of, or an invitation by, or on behalf of, the Issuer or any of the Managers to subscribe for, or
purchase, any of the Notes in any jurisdiction in which such offer or invitation is unlawful. Neither this
Offering Circular nor any other information supplied in connection with the issue of the Notes
constitutes an offer, and may not be used for the purpose of an offer to, or a solicitation by, anyone in
any jurisdiction or in any circumstances in which such an offer or solicitation is not authorised or is
unlawful.
The Managers have not separately verified the information contained herein. Accordingly, no
representation, warranty or undertaking, express or implied, is made and no responsibility or liability is
accepted by the Managers or any of them as to the accuracy or completeness of the information
contained in this Offering Circular or any other information provided by the Issuer in connection with
the Notes or their distribution. None of the Managers accepts any liability in relation to the information
contained in this Offering Circular or any other information provided by the Issuer in connection with
the Notes.
Neither this Offering Circular nor any other information supplied in connection with the Notes is
intended to provide the basis of any credit or other evaluation and should not be considered as a
recommendation by the Issuer or the Managers that any recipient of this Offering Circular or any other

Each potential investor in the Notes must determine the suitability of that investment in light of its own

particular financial situation, an investment in the Notes and the impact the Notes will have on

understand thoroughly the terms of the Notes and be familiar with the financial markets; and
(v)
be able to evaluate (either alone or with the help of a financial adviser) possible scenarios for

applicable risks.
For a description of certain restrictions on the offering and sale of the Notes and on distribution of this
Offering Circular, see "Plan of Distribution" below.
i


The Notes are not being offered or sold and may not be offered, sold or transferred directly or
indirectly in Pakistan, to residents in Pakistan or to, or for the account or benefit of, such persons.
The Islamic Republic of Pakistan is a foreign sovereign state. Consequently it may be difficult for
investors to realise judgments of courts in England or their own jurisdiction against Pakistan in the
courts of Pakistan. See "Enforcement of Foreign Judgments in Pakistan" and "Risk Factors ­
Enforcement of foreign judgements in Pakistan".
The issue of the Notes by The President of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan for and on behalf of the
Islamic Republic of Pakistan is in accordance with Article 173(3) of the Constitution of the Islamic
Republic of Pakistan which states "All contracts made in the exercise of the executive authority of the
Federation or of a Province shall be expressed to be made in the name of the President or, as the
case may be, the Governor of the Province".
In connection with the issue and distribution of the Notes, the Managers (or any person acting
on their behalf) may over-allot Notes or effect transactions with a view to supporting the
market price of the Notes at a level higher than that which might otherwise prevail. However,
there is no assurance that the Managers (or persons acting on behalf of the Managers) will
undertake stabilisation action. Any stabilisation action or over-allotment may begin on or after
the date on which adequate public disclosure of the terms of the offer of the Notes is made
and, if begun, may be ended at any time, but it must end no later than the earlier of 30 days
after the issue date of the Notes and 60 days after the date of the allotment of the Notes. Any
stabilisation action or over-allotment shall be conducted in accordance with all applicable laws
and rules.
The Notes have not been approved or disapproved by the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission or any other securities commission or other regulatory authority in the U.S., nor have the
foregoing authorities reviewed or passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of this Offering Circular. Any
representation to the contrary is a criminal offence.
This Offering Circular is being distributed in the United States to a limited number of QIBs for
informational use solely in connection with the consideration of the purchase of certain Notes issued
by the Issuer. Its use for any other purpose in the United States is not authorised. It may not be
distributed in the United States or any of its contents disclosed to anyone in the United States other
than the prospective investors to whom it is originally submitted.
Each purchaser or holder of interests in the Notes will be deemed, by its acceptance or purchase of
any such Notes, to have made certain representations and agreements as set out in "Plan of
Distribution" and "Transfer Restrictions".

PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Certain amounts included in this Offering Circular have been subject to rounding adjustments;
accordingly, figures shown as totals in certain tables may not be an arithmetic aggregation of the
figures which precede them.
Unless otherwise specified or the context requires, references to dollars, U.S. dollars and U.S.$ are
to United States dollars and references to Rupees and Rs. are to the lawful currency of the Islamic
Republic of Pakistan. Historic amounts translated into Rupees or U.S. dollars have been translated at
historic rates of exchange. Such translation should not be construed as a representation that the
amounts in question have been, could have been or could be converted into U.S. dollars at that or any
other rate. The spot mid-rate between the Rupee and the U.S.$ on 11 September 2015 as quoted by
the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) was Rupees 104.4365 to U.S.$1.00. References to billions are to
thousands of millions. References to SDR are to the Special Drawing Right, a unit of account having
the meaning ascribed to it from time to time by the Rules and Regulations of the International
Monetary Fund (IMF). References to any individual period as 2014-15 and so on are references to a
fiscal year commencing on 1 July in one year and ending on 30 June in the subsequent year.
SERVICE OF PROCESS AND ENFORCEMENT OF CIVIL LIABILITIES
The Issuer is a foreign sovereign nation, and a substantial portion of the assets of the Issuer are
located outside the United States and the United Kingdom. As a result, it may not be possible for
investors to effect service of process, within the United States and/or the United Kingdom, upon the
Issuer or to enforce against it, in the United States courts or courts located in the United Kingdom,
judgments obtained in United States courts or courts located in the United Kingdom, respectively,
including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United
States or any state or territory within the United States.
ENFORCEMENT OF FOREIGN JUDGMENTS IN PAKISTAN
In Pakistan, statutory recognition is given to foreign judgments under section 13 of the Pakistan Code
of Civil Procedure 1908 (the Code). This provides that a foreign judgment shall be conclusive as to
any matter thereby directly adjudicated upon except (i) where it has not been pronounced by a court of
competent jurisdiction, (ii) where it has not been given on the merits of the case, (iii) where it appears
on the face of the proceedings to be founded on an incorrect view of international law or a refusal to
recognise the law of Pakistan in cases where such law is applicable, (iv) where the proceedings in
which the judgment was obtained were opposed to natural justice, (v) where it has been obtained by
fraud, or (vi) where it sustains a claim founded on a breach of any law in force in Pakistan.
Section 44A of the Code provides that where a foreign judgment has been rendered by a court in any
country or territory outside Pakistan which the Government has, by notification, declared to be a
reciprocating territory, it may be enforced in Pakistan as if the judgment has been rendered by the
relevant court in Pakistan. The High Court of Justice in England is a court in a reciprocating territory
for the purposes of section 44A and, accordingly, a money judgment of that court would, subject to the
exceptions contained in section 13 of the Code, be enforceable as if the judgment were the judgment
of a district court in Pakistan. Accordingly, upon obtaining a foreign judgment, three possible courses
are open to the holder:
(a)
obtaining execution of the judgment by proceedings under section 44A, where these provisions
are applicable, as they are in the case of a judgment of the High Court of Justice in England, for
which the limitation period for initiating proceedings in Pakistan is three years from the date of
the English judgment;
(b)
filing a suit in Pakistan on the basis of the foreign judgment treating it as the cause of action, for
which the limitation period is six years from the date of the foreign judgment; and
(c)
filing a suit in Pakistan on the original cause of action, for which the limitation period is three
years from when the cause of action arises.
iii


In the case of proceedings described in paragraph (c) above, where the Pakistani court will have the
power to assess the damages, it is possible that a Pakistani court will not award damages on the
same basis as a foreign court, especially if it viewed the award of such damages as being contrary to
Pakistani public policy.
Section 82 of the Code requires a decree against the Government to specify a period within which it is
to be satisfied. If it remains unsatisfied at the expiry of such period, the Court issuing such decree is
required to issue a report for the Orders of the Provincial Government within which such Court is
situated. Execution proceedings can only be initiated against the Government three months after the
date of such report.
PRESENTATION OF STATISTICAL AND OTHER INFORMATION
References to Pakistan are to the Islamic Republic of Pakistan and references to the Government
are to the Government of Pakistan. References to the Economic Survey 2014-15 herein are to the
Economic Survey 2014-15 published on 4 June 2015 by the Government of Pakistan, Finance
Division, Economic Advisor's Wing, Islamabad. The Economic Survey, which is published each year
a day before the presentation of the Federal Budget and presents a view on the national economy
based on provisional data for the first three quarters of the fiscal year, is followed by the publication of
its Statistical Supplement, in which the full year data series are provisionally provided. It should be
noted that certain historic data set out herein may be subject to minor amendments as a result of more
accurate and updated information becoming available. References to the Labour Force Survey 2013-
14 herein are to the labour force survey published in May 2015 by the Government of Pakistan,
Statistics Division, Pakistan Bureau of Statistics, Islamabad. The Labour Force Survey 2013-14
presents information on labour force characteristics that have been collected from a representative
sample of 40,747 households to produce gender disaggregated national and provincial level estimates
with an urban/rural breakdown.
Prospective investors in the Notes should be aware that none of the statistics in this Offering Circular
have been independently verified.
A portion of Pakistan's economy is comprised of an informal, or shadow, economy. The informal
economy is not recorded and is only partially taxed, resulting in not only lack of revenue for the
Government but also ineffective regulation, unreliability of statistical information (including the
understatement of GDP and the contributions to GDP of various sectors) and inability to monitor a
large portion of the economy. Although the Government is attempting to address the informal
economy by streamlining certain regulations, particularly tax laws, there can be no assurances that
such reforms will adequately address the issues and bring the informal economy into the formal
sector.
Although a range of governmental ministries produce statistics on Pakistan and its economy in
accordance with international standards, there may be inconsistencies in the compilation of data and
methodologies. The statistical information in this Offering Circular has been derived from a number of
different identified sources and is based on the latest official information currently available from the
stated source. Several statistics are provisional and are noted as such where presented. The
development of statistical information relating to Pakistan is, however, an ongoing process, and
revised figures and estimates are produced on a continuous basis. All statistical information provided
in this Offering Circular may differ from that produced by other sources for a variety of reasons,
including the use of different assumptions, methodology, definitions and cut-off times.
Prospective investors in the Notes should be aware that figures relating to Pakistan's economy and
many other aggregate figures cited in this Offering Circular are subject to revision. Furthermore,
standards of accuracy of statistical data may vary from ministry to ministry or from period to period due
to the application of different methodologies. In this Offering Circular, data is presented as provided by
the relevant ministry to which the data is attributed, and no attempt has been made to reconcile such
data to the data compiled by other ministries or by other organisations, such as the IMF. Pakistan
produces data in accordance with the IMF's General Data Dissemination System, although the IMF
standard may not always be consistently applied.
iv


Pakistan has also provided information on certain matters pertaining to documentation that belongs to
independent third parties. In some of these circumstances, Pakistan has relied on reported information
in presenting such matters but is unable to independently verify such information.
v


FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Some of the statements contained in this Offering Circular, including those under "Summary ­ The
Islamic Republic of Pakistan", "The Islamic Republic of Pakistan" and "Overview of Pakistan's
Economy", are forward-looking. These statements are not historic facts, but are based on the

Circular, the words "anticipates", "estimates", "expects", "believes", "intends", "plans", "aims", "seeks",
"may", "will", "should" and any similar expressions generally identify forward-looking statements.
Future events may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking
statements. Therefore, prospective investors should not place undue reliance on them. Forward-
looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and the Issuer undertakes no obligation
to update any of them in light of new information or future events. Forward-looking statements involve
inherent risks. The Issuer cautions prospective investors that many factors could affect the future
performance of the Pakistani economy. These factors include, but are not limited to:
External factors, such as:

interest rates in financial markets outside Pakistan;

the impact of changes in the credit rating of Pakistan;

the impact of changes in the international prices of commodities;

economic conditions in Pakistan's major export markets;

EXCHANGE RATE INFORMATION
Pakistan has had a market-based unitary exchange rate system since May 1999. Under this unitary
exchange rate system, the floating inter-bank rate applies to all foreign exchange receipts and
payments both in the public and private sectors. See "Balance of Payments and Foreign Trade ­
Exchange Rates".
