Yes, you can book a Faisal Town Phase 2 plot from New York without setting foot in Pakistan. The Overseas Enclave, a block built specifically for buyers living outside the country, handles documentation, payment, and booking confirmation entirely through remote channels. This isn’t a workaround or a special exception; it’s how the process is designed to work for overseas Pakistanis from the start.
That said, “possible” doesn’t mean “identical to booking in person,” and there are a few extra steps New York-based buyers need to plan for, from obtaining the right identity documents through the correct consulate to deciding whether you need someone in Pakistan to act on your behalf.
Overview:
Yes, you can book a Faisal Town Phase 2 plot from New York without traveling to Pakistan first. The Overseas Enclave was built around the assumption that buyers wouldn’t be physically present, which means the process doesn’t put you at a disadvantage compared to someone booking in person.
Who This Guide Is For
This guide is written for Pakistanis currently living in New York, or anywhere else on the US East Coast, who want to book a plot in Faisal Town Phase 2 without traveling back to Pakistan first.
A Note on Verifying This Process With Your Dealer
The steps in this guide reflect the general remote booking process for overseas buyers, but specific requirements can vary. Confirm the details for your specific booking directly with your authorized dealer or Faisal Town’s official office before relying on this guide as your only source.
Why Remote Booking From New York Is Genuinely Possible
Faisal Town Phase 2 didn’t retrofit its process for overseas buyers after the fact. A specific block was built from the ground up around the assumption that buyers wouldn’t be physically present.
The Overseas Enclave: Built for Remote Buyers
The Overseas Enclave is the block within Faisal Town Phase 2 designed specifically for buyers living outside Pakistan. Its booking process, from document submission to payment confirmation, is structured around remote verification rather than in-person visits.
What’s Different About Booking From the USA Specifically
Most of the remote booking process is the same regardless of which country, or even which city within the USA, you’re booking from. What changes for New York-based buyers specifically is where you get certain documents processed. New York falls under the Pakistani Consulate General in New York, not the Embassy in Washington DC or the consulates in Houston, Chicago, or Los Angeles.
Documents You’ll Need From New York
Before you can book a plot, a handful of documents need to be in order:
- NICOP, obtained through the Pakistani Consulate General in New York
- Nominee’s CNIC or NICOP
- Two recent passport-sized photographs
- Completed application form
- Proof of current US residency
NICOP Through the Pakistani Consulate General in New York
If you don’t already have a NICOP, you’ll need to apply for one through the Pakistani Consulate General in New York, which handles this application for Pakistanis based in New York and the surrounding northeastern states. This is separate from the Embassy in Washington, DC, and from the other US consulates in Houston, Chicago, and Los Angeles, each of which covers a different region.
Other Required Identity and Residency Documents
Alongside your NICOP, you’ll typically need a nominee’s CNIC or NICOP, two recent passport-sized photographs, and a completed application form. Some developers also ask for proof of your current US residency.
Do You Need a Power of Attorney From New York
Not every booking requires a Power of Attorney (POA). Since most of the initial booking process can be handled directly by you through document submission and remote payment, a POA becomes relevant mainly when someone in Pakistan needs to act on your behalf.
When a POA Is Actually Necessary
A Power of Attorney typically becomes necessary if you need someone physically in Pakistan to sign documents, collect physical paperwork, or complete specific in-person steps you can’t handle remotely from New York. Confirm directly with your dealer whether your specific situation requires it.
Getting Your POA Attested at the Consulate General in New York
If a POA is needed, it must be attested by the Pakistani Consulate General in New York to be legally valid for use in Pakistan, since this is the office responsible for New York-based applicants rather than the Embassy or other regional consulates.
USD to PKR: What Your Booking Will Cost
Before booking, it helps to know what your payment actually costs in USD, since Faisal Town Phase 2’s pricing is listed entirely in PKR.
| PKR Amount | Approx. USD (at 1 USD = Rs 277.6) |
| Rs 1,785,000 (8 Marla down payment) | $6,431 |
| Rs 80,000 (8 Marla monthly installment) | $288 |
| Rs 3,730,000 (8 Marla lump-sum price) | $13,437 |
Today’s Approximate Rate
As of August 8, 2026, 1 US Dollar is approximately equal to Rs 277.6 in Pakistani Rupees, based on the mid-market exchange rate. Over the past 30 days, the rate has moved between roughly Rs 276.68 and Rs 278.10, so treat this as a snapshot rather than a fixed number. Always confirm the live rate with your bank or [transfer provider] before sending an actual payment. For a fuller breakdown of budgets and plot sizes, our USD to PKR guide covers this in more depth.
Step-by-Step: Booking a Plot From New York
Following these five steps in order helps avoid the delays that come from skipping ahead or sending payment before verification is complete:
- Contact an authorized dealer or Faisal Town’s official office
- Gather and submit your documents
- Verify the official bank account before paying
- Send your payment
- Receive booking confirmation
Step 1: Contact an Authorized Dealer or Faisal Town’s Official Office
Start by reaching out through official channels and let them know you’re booking from New York. Ask to be assigned a dedicated point of contact.
Step 2: Gather and Submit Your Documents
Collect your NICOP, nominee’s CNIC or NICOP, passport photos, and completed application form, then submit these to your dealer or Faisal Town’s office.
Step 3: Verify the Official Bank Account Before Paying
Before sending anything, confirm the receiving account title, number, and bank name directly with your dealer, checking that it matches “Faisal Town (Pvt) Ltd” exactly.
Step 4: Send Your Payment
Once verified, send your down payment through a traceable method such as a SWIFT bank transfer, then save your payment receipt immediately.
Step 5: Receive Booking Confirmation
Send your payment receipt along with your documents, then wait for verification and your official booking confirmation.
How to Avoid Scams When Booking Remotely From New York
Sending a large payment from abroad naturally carries more risk than booking in person, since it’s harder to verify who you’re actually dealing with from a distance.
Red Flags to Watch For
Be cautious if someone:
- Pressures you to transfer money quickly
- Asks you to send payment to an account with a different name than “Faisal Town (Pvt) Ltd”
- Offers a discount that seems unusually generous
- Won’t confirm their identity or documentation over a phone call
Verifying Contacts and Accounts Independently
Before sharing personal details or sending money, cross-check any phone number, WhatsApp contact, or account information against what’s listed on Faisal Town Phase 2’s official channels.
Common Mistakes New York-Based Buyers Should Avoid
- Starting the NICOP application too late, delaying the booking timeline
- Assuming the Washington DC Embassy handles New York applications, when it’s the Consulate General
- Skipping account re-verification on a second payment
- Forgetting the roughly nine-hour time difference, calling at a time that doesn’t overlap with Pakistan’s business hours

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I really book a Faisal Town Phase 2 plot without ever visiting Pakistan?
Yes, the Overseas Enclave is specifically designed for remote buyers, with documentation, payment, and confirmation all handled without needing to be physically present.
Do I need a Power of Attorney to book from New York?
Not always. A POA is only necessary if someone in Pakistan needs to sign documents or complete in-person steps on your behalf.
Where do I get my NICOP while living in New York?
You can apply for a NICOP through the Pakistani Consulate General in New York, which handles applications for the northeastern United States.
How long does the booking process take from the USA?
This depends on how quickly your documents and payment are submitted and verified, so it’s best to confirm an expected timeline directly with your dealer.
Is it safe to send a large payment from New York for a plot booking?
Yes, provided you verify the official account details directly with your dealer before transferring and use a traceable method such as a SWIFT bank transfer.
What is the best time to call Faisal Town Phase 2 from New York?
Calling between 6:00 AM and 8:00 AM Eastern Time generally lines up with the tail end of standard business hours in Pakistan, making it the most reliable window to reach someone directly.
Can I complete the entire booking process over email if I’d rather not call?
Yes, most of the process, including document submission and payment confirmation, can be handled through email and WhatsApp, though a phone call may still be useful for verifying account details before sending money.
What happens if my NICOP application is still pending when I want to book?
You may be able to start the booking process with alternative proof of residency in the meantime, but this should be confirmed directly with your dealer, since requirements can vary.
Does booking from New York cost more than booking in person in Pakistan?
The plot price and payment structure are the same regardless of where you’re booking from. Any additional cost typically comes from transfer fees or exchange rate margins on your bank transfer, not from the booking process itself.
Can a family member in Pakistan complete the booking on my behalf without a Power of Attorney?
Generally, no. If someone else needs to sign documents or act on your behalf, a properly attested Power of Attorney is usually required to make that legally valid.
