Punjab traffic police has officially clarified the requirements to get a Pakistani driving license for foreign citizens and residents. Those who have also obtained a valid international or foreign license can easily obtain a local Pakistani license if they fulfill some administrative requirements set by the regional transport authorities.
Motorway Police Testing Requirements
The traffic police of Punjab said that only motorway police would deal with these specialised credential changes. Applicants will have to sit and pass the regular local applicants’ practical driving test in accordance with road safety regulations. The main benefit of this official processing option is that it can be successfully processed in one calendar day, encompassing the verification and testing procedure.
Digital Tracking via DLIMS Portal
For the ease of public, the Punjab government has made an advanced tracking tool part of its infrastructure. The web-based Driving License Information Management System (DLIMS) has enabled applicants for driving licenses to check the status of their application from the comfort of their own homes. This utility will allow the applicants to avail the facility by submitting their 13 digit Computerized National Identity Card (CNIC) without visiting the offices physically just to get updates about the processing.
Simple Steps to Verify Your License Status
This simple process allows applicants to review their application printing and delivery in real-time:
Online Portal: Go online to look for the official “DLIMS Tracking” webpage.
Identity Input: Enter 13 digit CNIC number (without dashes) cleanly.
Security Verification: Fill the automatic CAPTCHA form shown on the screen.
To view the Track License Dashboard: Click on the “Track License”” button in the designated area.
If the internal system shows “Your regular license is in the printing queue,” your license card is in the process of being manufactured. After the production, it is immediately delivered to Pakistan Post and a specific postal tracking code is issued to you, so that you can observe its delivery up to your door with ease.
