Crossing over from Pakistan

One can also cross over into Amritsar from Pakistan Side. On the Pakistan side the Border is called Wagah Border and on Indian Side it is Atari Border. Lahore (Pakistan) to Border it is about 35 Kms and from Border to Amritsar (India) is 32 Kms. Crossing over to Amritsar by foot through this Border is a better option than taking a train. The formalities of immigration and customs take about 30-45 minutes on each side.

Please note that the Porters on the Pakistan side will leave your luggage on the Centre line on Pakistan side and for the Indian Side you will have to hire Indian Porters. You are advised to fix the portage charges before hand with the porters. Taxis are available on Amritsar side.

There is also a bus service between Amritsar and Lahore.
