Pakistan accepts foreign driving licenses to facilitate overseas Pakistanis

In order to facilitate foreigners and overseas Pakistanis, government decides to accept driving licenses issued by other countries.

The development would allow foreigners to drive in the country without any hassle with the driving licenses.

This comes after Prime Minister Imran Khan directed the relevant authorities in the response to a number of requests made by expatriates on the Prime Minister’s Portal.

According to the details, the foreign licenses in the city of Islamabad can be saved from fines.

The Islamabad Traffic Police (ITP) has issued an order, asking all staff, including deputy superintendents of traffic police, to accept licenses issued by other countries.

The order further stated that the ITP staff should not fine drivers holding valid foreign driving licenses.

For the first time foreign driving licenses accepted in Pakistan said Superintendent of Police (SP) ITP Khalid Rasheed.

The officer added that licenses issued by the ITP also accepted in some countries.
