The couple will be accorded a red carpet welcome in the first royal visit to the country in more than a decade.

Axar.az report citing Aljazeera that Prince William and his wife Kate, the Duchess of Cambridge, are to arrive in Pakistan's capital Islamabad on Monday for the first royal trip to the country in more than a decade.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge will be accorded a red carpet welcome for their first visit to the country.

The five-day visit will be held under special security arrangements being supervised by the military.

"This is the most complex tour undertaken by The Duke and Duchess to date, given the logistical and security considerations," Kensington Palace said in a statement.

In 2006, the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall, Charles, and Camilla, visited Pakistan.

Prince William's mother, the late Princess Diana, had also visited Pakistan in 1996 to attend a fundraising event for a cancer hospital built by cricketer-turned-politician and now Prime Minister Imran Khan.

Previously, Queen Elizabeth II visited Pakistan in 1961 and 1997.
