Step by step

How to check and pay an e-challan in Punjab

  1. 1

  2. 2

    Find the 17-digit PSID on the ticket — every Punjab challan is paid against it.

  3. 3

    Pay the PSID through the ePay Punjab app, mobile or internet banking, an ATM, Easypaisa, Mobicash or TCS, or over the counter at any bank branch on 1Link.

  4. 4

Guide

Punjab e-challan explained

Punjab has two kinds. Safe City e-challans come from cameras that read your number plate and go to the vehicle’s registered owner — so a car sold without a transfer keeps sending tickets to the old owner. Traffic warden tickets are written on the road; the warden keeps a document (usually your licence or registration) until you pay. Both are paid the same way, by PSID.

Punjab changed its traffic fines twice: a 2025 ordinance raised them sharply, and a 2026 amendment brought many down again. That is why websites and news reports quote different amounts. The table on this page is copied from Traffic Police Punjab’s own Offences & Penalties page — the amended Twelfth Schedule of the Motor Vehicles Ordinance — with separate amounts for motorcycles, rickshaws, cars up to 2000cc, cars above 2000cc and buses or goods vehicles.

Traffic Police Punjab gives 10 days to pay a ticket. If it is still unpaid, the documents taken from you are sent to court, and you get them back only after paying double the fine there. Paying online takes a few minutes, so there is no reason to let it run late.

No traffic officer is allowed to take a fine on the spot, and nobody can clear a challan for you through a personal bank account, Easypaisa or JazzCash number. Pay the PSID through ePay Punjab or your bank, and keep the receipt. Sites calling themselves “e-challan check Punjab” are not run by the police and cannot see or clear your tickets.

When we checked on 24 October 2026, the PSCA e-challan portal did not load. If you already have a ticket, pay it by its PSID through ePay Punjab or your banking app, or call 15. We will add the portal’s search steps once it is back.

Ask the seller to clear any challans before the transfer — Safe City tickets follow the owner. Then check the car on MTMIS Punjab vehicle verification and confirm its token tax is paid.
