KPK Vehicle Registration Process (Offline) Walk-in or offline registration can be time-consuming. So you need to know about the process beforehand to save time. Let’s discuss each step in turn:

Prepare Documents We’ll tell you where to go for walk-in vehicle registration but first, you need to prepare the following documents:

Original Invoice Sales Deed (Sales Certificate) ID Card (copy) MVE Certificate (For commercial vehicles) For imported vehicles, you need to provide:

Goods Declaration (GD) Export Certificate Bill of Lading Photocopy of Passport on whose name vehicle was imported Visit the Relevant Office After preparing all the documents, you need to visit the Excise and Taxation Office of your relevant district. For Peshawar, you can visit the ETO-I Office (for private vehicle registration) and the ETO-V Office (for commercial vehicle registration).

Fill the Form After entering the office, you need to visit the counter and submit your CNIC and the original invoice. The relevant officer will then give you a form called ‘Form E’. You need to fill out details on this form like your name, father’s name, address, engine number, chassis number, etc. Carefully fill out the form and give it back to the officer. The counter officer will then send you to the ETO office. The ETO officer will mark an Assistant Sub Inspector (ASI) or an inspector to do the physical inspection of your car.

Physical Inspection Now, you need to bring your car for the physical inspection. The ASI or inspector will check the chassis number and verify it with the information on form E. The inspector makes the report and submits it to the ETO.

You then need to go to the ETO office along with the officer. He will verify all the details before signing it. For imported vehicles, the ETO officer will confirm the vehicle details on the GD from the customs officer at the dry port. It doesn’t take long so he will verify and then sign and stamp it after cross-checking.

Receive Brochure Then you need to visit the counter where the officer will give you a brochure. You need to cross-check all the details on it and then sign the form. The officer will then enter all the details on the computer and give you an ID. This ID declares that your process for car registration has now started.

The same officer will also give you a Challan Form. The form contains all the charges you need to pay for vehicle registration. This includes the registration fee, advance tax, penalty fee (in case of late registration), and package fee. You need to pay the cash on that same counter.
