Driving license in Pakistan

Hi all,

Can a foreigner take the driving test in Pakistan?

What are the formalities to get a driver's licence in Pakistan?

Do you need special or extra documents being an expatriate?

How much does it cost?

Thank you for participating ;).

yeah it costs around 5000 rs and any one can make it !

Hahahahah. If they just need a driving license they can get it by offering a few thousand bucks to the people outside the driving licence offices. Its sad but true. I think if u hold an international licence that can be used too till a certain time period.

licenc is compalsary for every one

If you're a legal resident of Pakistan, you can either use an international driver's license if you have one or apply for a Pakistani driving license at any of the driving license centers. They will issue you a learner's license first and then after a month or two (don't remember right now) you have to appear for a written and practical assessment. Upon successful completion you will be awarded the license. You can get more details about getting a license in Islamabad here: http://www.islamabadpolice.gov.pk/pages … enses.aspx

If you can let me know where are you located in Pakistan, I will be able to provide you more specific information.
