The passing of the motion on Saturday came after the country’s Supreme Court ruled that Imran Khan acted unconstitutionally by previously blocking the process and dissolving parliament.
The no-confidence motion, which required 172 votes in the 342-seat parliament to pass, was supported by 174 lawmakers.
Khan, 69, surged to power in 2018 via military support, but recently lost his parliamentary majority when allies quit his coalition government.
Opposition parties say he has failed to revive an economy battered by COVID-19 or fulfil promises to make Pakistan corruption-free.
