Pakistan Secures 6-Year Extension in IPEA Membership

The Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC) has obtained a six-year extension in its full membership of the International Professional Engineers Agreement (IPEA), under the auspices of the International Engineering Alliance (IEA), which significantly increases the international mobility and recognition of Pakistani engineers.

During IEAM 2025, which took place in Mexico from June 8–13, the announcement was made. PEC was represented at the conference by Engr. Dr. Sarosh Lodhi, Senior Vice Chairman.

This breakthrough demonstrates Pakistan's ongoing adherence to international engineering standards, laws, and practices.

In June 2018, following a thorough peer-review procedure, Pakistan became the first country to be granted full IPEA membership. Since then, PEC has established a strong mechanism to grant competent engineers the IntPE title, improving their reputation and job opportunities overseas.

PEC's dedication to preserving global best practices in engineering education, professional growth, and ethics is recognized by the six-year extension.

PEC Chairman Engineer Waseem Nazir called the extension a historic accomplishment for Pakistan's engineering community. With its renewal, PEC's regulatory framework and our engineers' professional skills are once again trusted by the international community.

He stated that it enhances Pakistan's presence in the global engineering scene and gives Pakistani engineers more chances to contribute to foreign projects.

PEC hopes to foster global cooperation, increase outreach to engineering professionals, and streamline the registration process for IntPE applicants with this renewed mandate.

The extension not only raises Pakistani engineers' profile internationally but also shows how important the country is becoming to the engineering community worldwide.
