Dar was replaced by countryman Ahsan Raza, who joined newcomer Adrian Holdstock of South Africa on an expanded 12-man panel of elite International Cricket Council umpires on Thursday.
The 54-year-old Dar had been on the elite panel since its inception in 2002, and officiated in a record 144 Tests, 222 one-day internationals and 69 Twenty20s.
"It has been a long journey, but I have enjoyed every bit of it," Dar said.
"I have had the pleasure and honour of umpiring the world over and what I have achieved is something I did not even dream of when I started in the profession."
Dar was the first Pakistani umpire to be part of the elite panel and stood in the finals of the T20 World Cups in 2010 and 2012, while also officiating in five 50-over World Cups and seven T20 World Cups.
He was named the best umpire in the world for three successive years from 2009-11.
In December 2019, while umpiring an Australia-New Zealand Test in Perth, Dar got injured when colliding with Kiwi allrounder Mitchell Santner and ended up being cheered by the crowd after he rose groggily after treatment to officiate for the rest of the day.
ICC chief executive, Australian Geoff Allardice, lauded Dar's contribution to the game, saying, "Consistently elite performances over such a long period saw him enjoy enormous respect across all involved in international cricket."
