How to apply online for a driving licence in Pakistan
Driving-licence procedures are managed by provincial or territorial authorities, so the portal, documents, tests, fees, and online services depend on where you apply.
Essential guidance
Start with the official authority
Use the official traffic police or driving-licence authority for your province or territory. Avoid unofficial agents or lookalike websites, and verify the web address before entering identity or payment information.
Essential guidance
Identify the service you need
Learner permits, new licences, renewals, duplicates, international permits, and verification are separate services. Some steps may be online while biometric capture, medical requirements, or driving tests can still require an in-person visit.
Essential guidance
Prepare current documents
Requirements commonly involve a valid CNIC, photographs or digital identity data, contact information, and service-specific supporting documents. The official portal should be treated as the current source because requirements and fees can change.
Essential guidance
Keep evidence and protect your data
Save the application or payment reference and track status only through official channels. Never share one-time codes or account passwords with an agent.
