Check a bike’s registration

How do you want to check?

You’ll need

  • Registration number as on the bike’s plate
  • Registration date from the registration book or smart card
  • Captcha
Open MTMIS Punjab

Opens the official MTMIS Punjab page in a new tab. We don’t see or store what you enter there.

What the record shows

MTMIS Punjab

  • Owner name and father’s / husband’s name
  • Owner’s city
  • Make, year and colour
  • Engine number
  • Registration date and vehicle price
  • Token: “LIFE TIME” once the one-off bike token is paid

MTMIS has one search for every vehicle — cars, bikes and scooters alike. A bare number no longer works; it also needs the registration date.

Step by step

How to check a bike’s registration

  1. 1

    Read the province from the number plate and the registration book or smart card — a bike is only on the register of the province that registered it.

  2. 2

    Punjab: open MTMIS, enter the registration number and the registration date, solve the captcha and press Search. There is no separate bike form.

  3. 3

    Sindh: open Online Vehicle Verification on Excise Sindh, choose Two Wheelers, then enter the number exactly as on the plate. Vehicle Verification by CNIC lists every bike on one CNIC.

  4. 4

    Islamabad: open the bike in PAK APP, or use Online Services → Vehicle Detail on the Islamabad Excise website. Balochistan: Vehicle Verification on the Excise website, with the district.

  5. 5

    Hold the record against the bike: the engine number on the engine, the chassis number on the frame, the colour and the seller’s CNIC.

  6. 6

    In Karachi, also call CPLC on 1102 with the registration, engine and chassis numbers to rule out a stolen or snatched bike.

Guide

Bike registration check explained

No province offers a public search by chassis number alone. Punjab’s MTMIS uses the chassis number in two places — Number Plate Info (registration number + chassis number) and Application Tracking (application number + chassis number). Otherwise, the check is a match: look the bike up by its registration number, then compare the chassis number stamped on the frame with the one in the registration book or smart card. A filed, re-stamped or welded number is a reason to walk away.

Of the services we checked, only Excise Sindh has a public search by CNIC: Vehicle Verification by CNIC, with Two Wheelers selected, lists every motorcycle and scooter registered to a 13-digit CNIC. Punjab’s MTMIS searches by registration number and date; its CNIC fields are for Excise staff. Sellers in Sindh can use the CNIC search on themselves to confirm a sold bike has left their name.

Motorcycles in Punjab pay a one-off Rs 1,500 token at registration, so MTMIS shows LIFE TIME instead of a paid-up-to date. If the bike is sold within ten years of registration, the buyer pays that Rs 1,500 again less 10% for each year since — the transfer fee calculator works it out with the Rs 910 transfer fee.

Excise Sindh keeps cars and bikes in separate categories, and both of its look-ups — by number and by CNIC — ask you to pick one first. A bike number searched under Four Wheelers finds nothing. The same category choice applies on Check Your Number Plate, which shows whether a new plate is requested, awaiting printing or ready for collection.

Many bikes change hands on an open transfer letter and stay in the first owner’s name. Until the transfer is done, challans and tax notices go to that owner, and the buyer can’t prove the bike is theirs. Transfer straight away: the Excise fee is Rs 910 in Punjab, Rs 500 in Sindh and Rs 250 in Balochistan. Sindh adds Rs 50 a day once a bike’s transfer is more than 15 days late, up to Rs 10,000.

Both Punjab and Sindh charge extra when a new bike is registered more than 30 days after purchase: Rs 500 in Punjab and Rs 5,000 in Sindh. In Sindh, a Rs 165,000 70cc bike registered on time comes to Rs 8,400 on the Excise calculator — Rs 1,650 registration fee, Rs 1,800 lifetime tax and Rs 4,950 for plates, book and smart card.

Excise records show registration, not theft. In Sindh, CPLC checks motorcycles as well as cars against its stolen / snatched vehicle database — call 1102 with the registration, engine and chassis numbers. See the CPLC check.
