5 Best VPNs for Pakistan in 2023 - Unlock the Internet (2023)

ExpressVPN deserves its place as number one on my list of the best VPNs for Pakistan, thanks to its proprietary TrustedServer technology andRAM only servers.

In layman's terms: all (lightning fast) of the server you are connecting toautomatically hidden for maximum privacy.

This means that despite Pakistan's ban on unregistered VPNs,the government and your ISP will be none the wiser about your VPN use.

No other VPN on my list offers such an incredibly easy, automatic cloaking solution!

For example, although NordVPN offers a masking feature, it is not automatic, not compatible with every server, and not available with every protocol.

However, with ExpressVPN you getmasking on all your servers (with any protocol), to apply foradditional configuration required(like enabling a feature)!

But don't just take my word for it.

I'm well aware of the misinformation about ExpressVPN's stealth servers, so I double-checked with the provider.24/7 chatondersteuning.

Here is what Erika told me:

In addition, it reinforces its commitment to user privacy and securityExpressVPN's strict no-logs policy,proven by independent audits.

This, combined with all of the above,ensures that your online activities always remain private.

Best of all, if Pakistan decides to block popular websites like Facebook and YouTube again,ExpressVPN ensures that you will have no problem unblocking them without being noticed!

But the advantages do not stop there.

Thanks toExpressVPN's Pakistani server, you won't have any problems eitheraccess your e-banking accounts while traveling abroad.

So, if your Pakistani bank requires a Pakistani IP address to login, you're in luck!

This isa big plus for ExpressVPN users, as the only other VPNs on my list that offer Pakistani server options are CyberGhost and HMA.

In the same way, if you hope sounlimited access to American Netflixwhile living or visiting Pakistan,ExpressVPN is again the best option!

In fact, you have access to onecountless streaming services, includedNetflix,Hulu,BBC iPlayer, Disney+ and more!

And while other VPNs on my list offer different streaming options,none of them compare to ExpressVPN's extensive compatibility with almost every geo-locked streaming platform out there.

However, there is one drawback.

Since ExpressVPN is a premium VPN provider, it comes to aPremium price.

You will still enjoy one30-day money back guarantee, but subscription costs look something like this:

If you're looking for a VPN, here it ispacked with safety features, look no further thanNordVPN!

To be completely honest,NordVPN has more security features than all the other VPNs on my list combined.

Let's start withmost important An:overshadow.

As mentioned in my mini-review of ExpressVPN,NordVPN's obfuscation featureis somewhat limited and requires some manual configuration –but it is 100% effective!

Here's a screenshot showing how to enable it:

This of course meansHiding your online activities from the Pakistani government and your internet service provider is very easy!

In fact, they don't even know you're using NordVPN at all.

But the security features don't end with obfuscation.

As I said – a VPN service is full of them!

This is especially perfect for Pakistani users who value security (and privacy) above all else.

To give you the full picture, NordVPN's other security features include:

• Double VPN
• RAM only servers
• Power off switch
• DNS leak protection
• The most secure VPN protocols
• Encryption of war
• And property of the giverOnion Over VPN function

Besides, think about itNordVPN is the only VPN on my list that offers all of these features in its standard package.

best of all,Thanks to this suite of premium security features, you don't have to struggle to keep your online activities invisible to everyone.

This includes using NordVPN to access recently blocked websites like Facebook and YouTube (if Pakistan blocks them again).

However, there are a few drawbacks.

For starters, NordVPN offers itlightning fast speeds, you can expect a small drop if you use the cloaking feature (or the DoubleVPN and Onion Over VPN features).

This is a bit disappointing as ExpressVPN's servers automatically dim with no noticeable loss of speed.

Here's a quick comparison of NordVPN without masking vs. NordVPN with masking:

But more urgently,NordVPN does not offer Pakistani servers.

This means that a VPN service is more useful forusers living in or planning to visit Pakistan– not for Pakistani users traveling abroad.

On the positive side,NordVPN is another great option for unblocking geo-locked streaming platforms likeNetflixUBBC iPlayerfrom your home or hotel in Pakistan!

But for an EVEN BETTER deal,click here!

ProtonVPNis worthy of its title as one of the most trusted VPNs for Pakistan, especially since it is the only VPN on my list that is (allegedly) registered with Pakistani ISPs as of July 2020.

It is also one of the few VPNs that I would call reliable enough to be used as a registered VPN for Pakistan.

However, to be clear, I could not find an official list of registered Pakistani VPNs.

ToA Pakistani Reddit userwhere ProtonVPN's claim comes from:

I am also currently awaiting a response from the ProtonVPN support team for further confirmation.

Grateful,ProtonVPN's registered status is just the beginning of its phenomenal service– and users agree, as does the VPN providerone of the most recommended Pakistani VPN when people search for itr/pakistan!

This is probably due to VPNsmany safety features, it even competes with our runner-up, NordVPN.

Check out a quick comparison between the two VPNs here:

Of course, NordVPN still won (taking second place instead of third), but that doesn't mean ProtonVPN didn't keep up!

Actually, thanks to hisSecure Core architectureand features likeTor putem VPN-a, ProtonVPNjust left behind.

However, one of the reasons why the provider fell and continues to fall behind is the lack of masking feature.

Luckily, according to ProtonVPN's official Reddit support account, the feature has been in the works since early 2021!

anyway,Pakistani users are guaranteed a high degree of anonymity with this VPN service.

Even if ProtonVPN is registered with Pakistani ISPs, you still want a high degree of anonymity to prevent them from spying on you.

And if Pakistan decides to ban websites like Facebook, WhatsApp and YouTube again, ProtonVPN is more than capable of helping you unblock them!

However, like NordVPN,ProtonVPN does not offer Pakistani servers.

So if you are looking for a VPN that offers Pakistani IP addresses, ProtonVPN is not the one.

But it's great for streaming geo-blocked platforms like Netflix,YearHulu!

CyberGhost definitely deserves its place on my list, as it offers a whopping 12 servers in Pakistan!

This isthe highest number of Pakistani servers in my list, with CyberGhost beating ExpressVPN (above) and HMA (below)!

In other words, if you're looking for the ideal VPN for inside and outside of Pakistan, you've found it!

CyberGhost doesn't just help youaccess your Pakistani e-banking accounts from abroad, but it will help you tooenjoy your favorite Pakistani TV networks (like PTV and iFlix) regardless of your location.

The same goes for popular streaming services such asBBC iPlayerUHulu.

However, the security side of CyberGhost is impressive and disappointing at the same time –impressive because it has many features, Alidisappointing as most have extra charges.

For example, that of CyberGhostNoSpy-servers guarantees that the Pakistani government and your ISP will not see your online activities or your VPN usage- but sheit costs an additional $10 per yearAnd hisonly available with long-term subscriptions.

This is even more disappointing when you consider that providers like NordVPN offer all of their security features at no additional cost.

Here's onequick comparisonlet's clarify that point.

You get them from CyberGhost, thoughRAM only servers,kill clutch,military grade encryption, uthe best VPN protocolsin hisstandard package.

And you'll have no problem unblocking websites and apps if you need to!

And, impressively, throughsubscriptions of six months or more,you get a 45-day money-back guarantee!

For reference, no other VPN on my list offers a money-back guarantee longer than 30 days.

However, the downside to this is thatCyberGhost's monthly plan only comes with a 14-day money-back guarantee– and so are the general pricesquite expensive:

Last but not least,VerbergMijnAssor HMA offers to Pakistani customerstwo invincible things:IP Shuffle featureUtwo Pakistani servers.

First, with HMA's IP Shuffle feature you canperiodically change your IP address while using the Service.

And hisadaptable!

You can set it to play randomly every 30 minutes, every hour, etc.

Make sure you also enable HMA's kill switch to keep your connection private during shuffle.

This feature is useful forPakistani users who travel a lot, asmakes it harder for "hackers, trackers and attackers" to see your real location.

As for the two Pakistani servers - no prizes for guessing what they are good for!

AKA: Yes, if you travel abroad, and you mustaccess your Pakistani accounts with a Pakistani IP address, or youyou want to watch PTV live broadcasts, HMA can help!

While two servers may not seem like much, it's still more than what ExpressVPN (and NordVPN/ProtonVPN) can offer!

Moving on, although the HMA doesn't offer a dedicated dimming feature, it doesmilitary grade encryption,the best VPN protocols,off switch,leakage protection,DDoS protection, usplit tunneling function.

HMA is great for that toounblocking websites and geo-restricted streaming platforms!

This includesFacebook,YouTube,What's up,Netflix ONS, uBBC iPlayer.

And the main reason for that is becauseHMA offers servers in 210 countries.

Yes, you read that right!

210 countries!

This ismore than double the number of countries served by any other VPN on my list.

Here is a table to help you compare:

Remark:You may need to contact the HMA support team to find a server optimized for streaming.

Now for the cons.

I put HMA as number five on my list because, despite being a great service,you pay the same (or less) for better service, as mentioned above.

HMA subscriptions are quite expensive:
