The Chemical Society of Pakistan, also known as Pakistan Chemistry Society, is an academic and scientific society of professional chemists, devoted and dedicated for scientific inquiry in the field of chemistry.[2] It is one of the largest learned societies of Pakistan and groups together all degree-levels in all fields of chemistry, chemical engineering, and related fields such as biochemistry, Chemical physics, Mathematical chemistry, Electrochemistry and other branches of chemistry.[2]

The Chemical Society was established and launched in 1978, after a series of chemical publications were published through the HEJ Research Institute of Chemistry, at the Karachi University.[2] It publishes its own bimonthly journal, the Journal of the Chemical Society of Pakistan.
