Overseas Pakistanis (Urdu: بیرون ملک پاکستانی نژاد), or the Pakistani diaspora, refers to Pakistanis who live outside of Pakistan. These include citizens that have migrated to another country as well as people born abroad of Pakistani descent. According to the Ministry of Overseas Pakistanis and Human Resource Development, approximately 8.8 million Pakistanis live abroad according to December 2017 estimates. According to the Ministry of Emigration and Overseas Employment, data released in 2023 states that more than 10.80 million people have moved abroad since 1990. [1]

The vast majority, over 4.7 million, reside in the Middle East.[22][23] The second-largest community, at around 1.2 million, live in the United Kingdom, followed by the United States (especially New York City, Chicago, and New Jersey) in third place. According to the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs, Pakistan has the 6th largest diaspora in the world.[24] In 2021, overseas Pakistanis sent record remittances with growth at 26 percent and levels reaching US$33 billion in 2021.[25]
