The decision was taken after PFF Congress granted approval of constitutional amendments mandated by the football governing body and the Asian Football Confederation (AFC).

"The Bureau of the Fifa Council decided on March 2, 2025 to lift the suspension that was imposed on the PFF on February 6, 2025," the football-governing body stated.

The move allows PFF representative and club teams to participate in international competitions.

Shahid Khokhar, a member of the PFF Normalisation Committee, confirmed that Pakistan’s suspension has been lifted. It will make Pakistan eligible to resume international football activities.

“We thank Fifa and AFC for their continued support of Pakistan football and extend our heartfelt congratulations to the Pakistan football community,” Khokhar added.

FIFA had imposed a suspension last month after PFF Congress members initially rejected the constitutional amendments, which were considered essential for ensuring a transparent election process. However, in a subsequent meeting on February 27, the Congress agreed to approve the amendments.
