How to Get a Driving License in Islamabad (Step-by-Step)

From learner permit to full license — every step, every document, and every fee explained for Islamabad in 2026.

Guide to getting a driving license in Islamabad

Getting your driving license in Islamabad is easier than most people think — if you know the steps. Here is the complete process our students follow.

Step 1: Get your learner permit

Visit the Islamabad Traffic Police licensing office with your CNIC and a copy. The learner permit is issued the same day and is valid for six months. You must hold it for at least 42 days before taking the driving test.

Step 2: Learn to drive properly

This is where most people cut corners — and fail the test. A structured course teaches you the S-shape, L-shape, and parallel parking maneuvers that the test actually checks.

Step 3: Pass the sign test and practical test

The theory test covers road signs and traffic rules. After passing it, you take the practical test on the same day in most cases. Our courses include full preparation for both.
