The United Nations Mission in Haiti (UNMIH) was a peacekeeping operation carried out by the United Nations between September 1993 and June 1996. The Mission was reestablished (MINUSTAH) in April 2004, after a rebellion took over most of Haiti and President Bertrand Aristide resigned. This mandate ended in 2017, replaced by United Nations Mission for Justice Support in Haiti (MINUJUSTH), which saw the end of UN peacekeepers in Haiti after its ending in 2019.
Pakistan has served in 46 United Nations peacekeeping missions in 29 countries around the world.

Pakistan joined the United Nations on 30 September 1947, despite opposition from Afghanistan because of the Durand Line issue.
