The Embassy of Afghanistan in Islamabad[a] is the diplomatic mission of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan to the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.

As of 2017 a new embassy was being constructed in the Diplomatic Enclave of Islamabad, to become Afghanistan's largest embassy abroad.[5] The last Afghan ambassador to Pakistan before the fall of the Islamic Republic to the Taliban was Najibullah Alikhel.[6] In July 2021, Afghanistan recalled its diplomats over allegations by Alikhel's daughter Silsila that she had been kidnapped and beaten, which Pakistan denied. In October 2021, despite not recognizing the post-August 2021 Taliban rule, Pakistan allowed the Taliban to assign diplomats to the embassy as well as the Afghan consulates in Karachi, Peshawar, and Quetta.[7]
