The possibility to drive lawfully in 132 countries across the world has been made possible by the release of Pakistan’s International Driving License, which is an exciting milestone for drivers in Pakistan. Pakistani nationals are required by law to obtain an international driving permit because of the tight laws and regulations in the nation. But getting an international permit has historically been a difficult and drawn-out procedure. Pakistani drivers can now travel to new places and enjoy the freedom of driving in many other nations across the world thanks to this most recent update.
Aspiring drivers must complete the application process carefully and meet the standards in order to receive an international driving license. The required paperwork consists of three photocopies of a valid CNIC (Computerized National Identity Card), two attested passport-sized photos, an attested copy of the applicant’s passport, and a photocopy of their valid national driver’s license. In addition, applicants who are 50 years of age or older may be asked for a medical certificate, and those who apply to Motorway Police must submit a blood group report.
A visit to the relevant Driving License Authority office is required as part of the application procedure. Tokens are required, and applicants must wait for their time to finish data entry and have their eyes examined. For verification, live camera and biometric images are also captured. In addition, a computerized test on traffic signs is given, and a written test based on a scenario is only applicable at the Islamabad Traffic Police. Following the submission of all required paperwork, candidates take a practical driving exam in a police officer-supervised car, either in their own or one that is provided.
The International Driving License is issued upon successful completion of the entire process. Pakistani drivers can anticipate getting their license in about a week, which will enable them to start their overseas driving journeys. With 132 countries now accessible, there are plenty of options for business travel, cultural encounters, and exploration. It makes it possible for Pakistani drivers to easily and comfortably traverse foreign road networks, making international travel easier and more pleasurable.
