In Islamabad Vehicle Transfer Fees Increased in April 2025

The Office of the Chief Commissioner of Islamabad Capital Territory has revealed a substantial increase in fees for transferring vehicle ownership across various categories. This major hike in vehicle transfer fees in Islamabad takes effect on April 14, 2025, following a notification released on April 11, 2025. Implemented under Section 43 of the West Pakistan Motor Vehicle Ordinance, 1965, the change aims to address the increasing number of vehicle registrations and the administrative expenses tied to ownership transfers.

New Transfer Fee Breakdown

The revised fees impact a wide range of vehicles, from traditional to electric models. Here’s a detailed look at the updated charges:

Vehicle Type	Engine Capacity / Power	Previous Fee (Rs.)	Updated Fee (Rs.)
Private/Commercial	Up to 1000 cc	1,200	2,750

The fee adjustment applies to both private and commercial vehicles. Notably, electric vehicles (EVs) now face transfer fees for the first time, reflecting their growing presence in Pakistan. Motorbike fees have also risen sharply, jumping from a uniform Rs. 150 to as much as Rs. 1,500, depending on engine size.

Enforcement and Market Trends

The Chief Commissioner has mandated that the new fees be deposited into the designated financial account as outlined by the Ministry of Finance. The Excise & Taxation Department, ICT Islamabad, will ensure compliance with these rates. The inclusion of EVs highlights their increasing adoption, with companies like BYD, MG Motor, Dewan Motors, DFSK, and GuGo Motors entering Pakistan’s market in recent months.
