In a groundbreaking move, the Punjab region has introduced a new IT initiative to enhance the efficiency of its driving license issuance process. Now, obtaining a driving license in Punjab has become more accessible and convenient for residents across the region.
Learner Permits Made Simple
Learner permits are now issued on a daily basis, with a validity of 6 months. Aspiring drivers can easily kickstart their journey by presenting a copy of their CNIC, obtaining a Rs.60 ticket from any Post Office, and acquiring a Highway Code Book of traffic rules and regulations from the Traffic Police Office.
Age-appropriate Licensing
Punjab has streamlined the age requirements for different vehicle categories:
- Motor Cycle/Motor Car: 18 Years
- LTV (Rickshaw, Taxi, Tractor Commercial, Hiace): 21 Years
- HTV: 22 Years
Simplified Documentation Process
To obtain a learner’s permit, applicants need to submit the following documents:
- Copy of CNIC
- Rs.60 ticket from any Post Office
- Highway Code Book of traffic rules and regulations
- Medical Certificate from a registered medical practitioner
Fast-track Regular License Process
For a regular driving license, the process has been further simplified:
- Copy of CNIC
- 03 Passport size photographs
- Medical certificate from an authorized medical practitioner
- Medical Fitness Certificate (for candidates aged 50 years or above)
- Application form (A)
- Original learner permit (at least 42 days within the validity period)
- Relevant ticket pasted on the document
Affordable License Fees
Punjab has introduced a competitive fee schedule for various vehicle types, making driving licenses more accessible to all:
- Motor Cycle: Rs.550
- Motor Car: Rs.900
- Motor Cycle/Motor Car: Rs.950
- LTV: Rs.900
- Motor Cycle/LTV: Rs.950

This strategic initiative not only ensures a smoother licensing process but also promotes road safety by encouraging individuals to familiarize themselves with the Highway Code Book.
