Driving licence fee for 5 years
Most people take the longest validity to avoid another visit. A fresh Punjab licence costs the test fee once, the yearly fee for each year and the courier charge once:
| Licence | Test | Fee a year | Courier | 1 year | 5 years |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Motorcycle (bike) | Rs 50 | Rs 450 | Rs 480 | Rs 980 | Rs 2,780 |
| Car or jeep | Rs 150 | Rs 1,350 | Rs 480 | Rs 1,980 | Rs 7,380 |
| Motorcycle and car | Rs 200 | Rs 1,350 | Rs 480 | Rs 2,030 | Rs 7,430 |
| LTV | Rs 150 | Rs 1,850 | Rs 480 | Rs 2,480 | Rs 9,880 |
So each extra year of a car licence adds only Rs 1,350. For a shorter licence the sum is the same: a bike licence costs Rs 1,430 for 2 years and Rs 1,880 for 3 years, and a car licence Rs 3,330 and Rs 4,680. Islamabad charges flat fees instead of a per-year fee: see the Islamabad driving licence fee page.
