DHA Phase 2 Islamabad FAQ

DHA Phase 2 sits in Zone V of the Islamabad Capital Territory (ICT). While the postal system uses an Islamabad address and the community is officially within the Islamabad metropolitan boundary, it is physically located between Islamabad and Rawalpindi — along the Islamabad Expressway and GT Road. The area was developed on land between the two cities, so some older references mention Rawalpindi. For postal, administrative, and legal purposes, it is part of Islamabad.

The official address is: DHA Phase II, Islamabad Expressway, Islamabad Capital Territory, 44000, Pakistan. The DHA Islamabad-Rawalpindi main office is located at Phase-I, Defence Mall, Defence Avenue, Islamabad-Rawalpindi 44000.

DHA Phase 2 falls under the Islamabad Capital Territory (ICT). It is not part of any Rawalpindi district. The ICT is a separate administrative unit governed by the Islamabad Metropolitan Corporation.

DHA Phase 2 spans 15,075 kanals (approximately 7,537 acres or 3,050 hectares). It is divided into 9 developed sectors (A through J, excluding I).

DHA Phase 2 Extension is located adjacent to the existing DHA Phase II sectors, extending further along the Islamabad Expressway corridor. The exact boundaries and sector maps are available through the official DHA office and our map page.

DHA Phase 2 has 9 developed sectors: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, and J (there is no Sector I). Each sector has its own parks, mosques, and residential streets. See our sectors guide for detailed information on each sector.

Common residential plot sizes are 5 Marla, 7 Marla, 10 Marla, 1 Kanal, and 2 Kanal. Houses, flats, apartments, upper/lower portions, and commercial properties are also available for rent and sale across all sectors.

DHA Phase 2 has 24/7 gated security with CCTV monitoring, security checkpoints at all gates, regular patrols, and a dedicated security helpline (0800-DHAIR). It is consistently ranked among the safest residential communities in the Islamabad-Rawalpindi region.

DHA Phase 2 Islamabad contains an estimated 8,000–10,000 residential plots and houses across its 9 sectors. The exact number varies as new construction continues. The community includes houses of various sizes from 5 Marla to 4 Kanal, along with apartment towers like Askari Tower and Lignum Tower.

Sectors E, F, and G are generally considered the best sectors due to their central location, proximity to Giga Mall, wider boulevards, and established infrastructure. However, Sector A and B offer better commercial access via GT Road and are popular for rental investment. Sector H and J are quieter and preferred by families who want a more peaceful environment. The "best" sector depends on your priorities — convenience, price, or tranquility.
