Simplify License for tourist guides
Reform IDK633
DescriptionBefore: Individuals seeking to work as tourist guides are required to obtain a license from the Tourist Services Wing of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Culture and Tourism Authority (KPCTA) before providing guiding services. The mandatory licensing process introduces additional regulatory compliance, documentation, and approval requirements, increasing the time and cost of entering the tourism sector and limiting the availability of qualified guides for tourism businesses.
