If you are a resident of the capital, and need to buy a new vehicle or even a used one, the most important step is to either get it registered or verified.

However, many individuals hesitate before going through with these procedures, mostly due to the fact that these procedures are quite confusing and lengthy. The most common question is always “How long would the queue be?” 

What if we told you we can clear any confusion you might have and you don’t even have to stand in long queues for hours?

Seems like a dream right?

Similar to our previous guide about vehicle verification in Pakistan, in this blog, we will tell you all about both the online vehicle verification in Islamabad and the registration process. 

Let’s get started!

Vehicle Verification Islamabad

Let us now get to the actual vehicle verification process in Islamabad. 

Similar to MTMIS Punjab, the Excise and Taxation Department of the capital has launched the Motor Transport Information Management System. MTMIS Islamabad is an information centre that has made the process of vehicle verification in Islamabad easier, as it stores all the data related to vehicle registration, verification, driving licence and traffic rule violations. 

Getting your car registration check won’t just help you if a traffic police constable wants to know the details of your vehicle; it will also help you if you wish to resell your car and need to reassure the buyer regarding the authenticity of the vehicle. 

Methods of Vehicle Verification in Islamabad

In Islamabad Capital Territory, there are three simple methods to do a vehicle registration check in Islamabad:

• Official Website
• Visit to the Excise department
