How much more does a non-filer pay on a 1300cc car?
In Punjab for 2026-27, the yearly token plus withholding tax on a 1300cc car comes to Rs 4,500 for a filer and Rs 7,000 for a non-filer, a gap of Rs 2,500. The difference comes from the doubled section 234 rate for people not on the Active Taxpayer List.
How do I tell the city from a number plate?
On older series the first letters identify the registering district, such as LE for Lahore, ST for Sialkot and RI for Rawalpindi. Punjab stopped using district letters in August 2020 and Sindh and KP are moving to owner-linked numbers, so newer plates do not show a city. We list 228 codes; type one into the search box above.
Is the calculated amount final?
No. It is worked out from the schedules published by provincial Excise departments and FBR. Arrears, fines and special exemptions are decided by the Excise office when you pay.
