Pakistan hiking permits

Side-by-side stored fields. A blank cost is not zero. Operator packages are not in this table.

Each row is a stored fee entry: issuer, the date that source was checked, status, and a link when the record has one. The local figure is the headline. A dollar line is this desk's dated snapshot, not the issuer's price.
